Summary of safety precautions
Always read and strictly follow the warnings and cautions listed on this page. Service only by qualified personnel.
WARNING
• Do not operate Power-LOAD with a voltage that is inconsistent with the rating on the product.
• Do not operate Power-LOAD above its duty cycle to avoid the risk of equipment damage or smoke hazard.
• Do not connect Power-LOAD to a 24 VDC vehicle circuit. Always connect Power-LOAD to a 12.8 VDC-15.6 VDC
vehicle circuit that is on a 15A fuse/breaker prevent power hazards.
• Power-LOAD operates at 13.56 MHz when you use Power-LOAD controls with a powered cot (Power-PRO XT or
Power-PRO IT) that could interfere with other equipment that operate at this frequency band.
• The use of accessories, transducers, and cables, other than those specified, with the exception of transducers and
cables that are sold by Stryker as replacement parts for internal components, may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the Power-LOAD system.
• Do not use the Power-LOAD system and the Power-PRO cot adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If
adjacent or stacked use is necessary, observe the Power-LOAD system to confirm normal operation in the
configuration where it will be used.
• Power-LOAD operates primarily at these frequencies: 70 - 85 kHz for inductive charging and 13.56 MHz±7 kHz,
Amplitude Modulated (OOK), ERP: -82.37 dBm. The inductive charging can operate between these frequencies: 70 -
125 kHz. Other equipment may interfere with the Power-LOAD system, even if that other equipment complies with
CISPR emission requirements.
• Always press the main power button to turn the unit off before service or cleaning.
• Always use any appropriate personal protective equipment while power washing to avoid inhaling contagion. Power
washing equipment may aerate contamination.
• Always wipe the product with clean water and dry after cleaning. Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature
and may cause damage to the product. Failure to properly rinse and dry the product leaves a corrosive residue on
the surface of the product and may cause premature corrosion of critical components.
• Two installers are required when lifting and positioning the trolley assembly.
• While servicing or installing covers, do not pinch cables.
• ESD precautions should be taken when handling the control board. For more information about ESD protection,
contact Stryker Technical Support at (800) 327-0770.
CAUTION
• Improper usage of the product can cause injury to the patient or operator. Operate the product only as described in
this manual.
• Do not modify the product or any components of the product. Modifying the product can cause unpredictable
operation resulting in injury to patient or operator. Modifying the product also voids its warranty.
• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at their expense. In the event of
interference, please relocate or reorient the Power-LOAD system or interfering product.
• Always relocate or reorient the Power- LOAD system or interfering product in the event of interference. This device
complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.
• Do not use portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) no closer than 30 cm (12 in.) to any part of the Power-LOAD system, including cables specified by the
manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment may result.
