Chapter 2 Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
• The WM-DP1 mobile workstation should only be used in a medical
facility under the direction of a trained physician.
• Explosion hazard - never install or use the WM-DP1 mobile workstation
within the zone of risk of flammable gases. If the workstation is fitted
with antistatic castors (see Chapter 8), none of the medical electrical
equipment with which the workstation is intended to be used is ‘AP’ or
‘APG’ rated, therefore never install or use the WM-P1 series mobile
workstation within the zone of risk of flammable gases.
• To prevent patient shock, the combination of equipment used on the
WM-DP1 mobile workstation should never be applied directly to the
heart.
• If the fuse holder cap on the transformer is not fitted correctly, there is a
possibility that the fuse holder will overheat. When replacing the fuse,
ensure the fuse holder cap (Figure 4.3) is tightened using a 6mm to
8mm flat bladed screwdriver. The recommended tightening torque is
0.5Nm.
• Should the equipment become soiled with blood or other potentially
infectious materials, first wipe off all gross debris and then
decontaminate the equipment using a surface disinfectant, otherwise,
blood, mucus and other potentially infectious material from the patient
could pose an infection risk. Confirm that the equipment is completely
dry before use.
• Use personal protective equipment to guard against dangerous
chemicals and potentially infectious material, otherwise, blood, mucus
and other potentially infectious material from the patient could pose an
infection risk. During cleaning, wear appropriate protective equipment,
such as eye wear, face mask, moisture-resistant clothing and chemical-
resistant gloves that fit properly and are long enough so that your skin is
not exposed.
• To prevent user or patient cross-contamination, do not hang
contaminated endoscopes on the scope hanger.
• The WM-DP1 should be used in accordance with the following.
Otherwise, the workstation will be ‘top heavy’ and may lose stability and
topple, causing equipment damage and/or personal injury.
- Two MAJ-181 restrictors are supplied which must be fitted to
MAJ-181 LCD monitor arm(s) if used (refer to section 4.8).
- LCD monitor arms and monitors should be installed after all
other equipment is installed on an appropriate place on the
workstation.
- LCD monitor arms should not be installed or used to the rear
of the workstation, see Figure 2.1.
- Confirm that the workstation does not lose stability when the
monitor arm is extended. If the workstation looks unstable,
relocate heavy equipment from the upper shelf to the bottom
shelf.
