Cleaning
WARNING
• 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.
CAUTION
• Do not spray directly underneath the trolley up in to the trolley mechanism. Water could gain ingress into the trolley
housing and may accelerate corrosion or degrade operation.
• Do not clean, service, or perform maintenance while the product is in use.
The product is power washable. The product may show some signs of oxidation or discoloration from continuous
washing. No degradation of the product’s performance will occur from power washing as long as you follow the proper
procedures.
• Follow the cleaning solution manufacturer’s dilution recommendations exactly.
• Power wash Power-LOAD with recommended cleaners. Hose down the product and towel dry the transfer rails and
arm hinges.
• Power wash Power-LOAD with a hand held wand unit or wipe the product with a clean cloth and recommended
cleaners.
• When you hose down or power wash the product, do not spray directly underneath the trolley up in to the trolley
mechanism. Water could gain ingress into the trolley housing and may accelerate corrosion or degrade operation.
• Using a soft cloth and brush, clean the transfer roller channels to prevent debris accumulation.
• Remove the trolley top cover and patient left side cover assembly to towel dry the control board assembly.
• Disconnect the motor and battery connectors and towel dry the connectors.
• Towel dry the transfer rails and arm hinges.
• When cleaning, park the ambulance uphill and extend the transfer and trolley so the water drains out of the rear
end of the vehicle patient compartment.
Note: Water that gets into the Power-LOAD system will drain through the drain tube to the underside of the vehicle.
Suggested cleaners
In general, when used in concentrations recommended by the manufacturer, either phenolic type or quaternary
(excluding Virex® TB) type disinfectants can be used. Iodophor type disinfectants are not recommended for use
because staining may occur.
WARNING
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.
Suggested cleaners include:
• Quaternary cleaners (active ingredient - ammonium chloride)
• Phenolic cleaners (active ingredient - o-phenylphenol)
• Chlorinated bleach solution (5.25% - less than 1 part bleach to 100 parts water)
Avoid over saturation. Do not allow the product to stay wet longer than the chemical manufacturer's guidelines for
proper disinfecting.
Note: Failure to follow the above directions when using these types of cleaners may void this product’s warranty.
