2.3 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
When servicing use only identical replacement parts provided by Stryker.
ANNUAL CHECKLIST
⎯ All fasteners secure.
⎯ Inspect for excessive wear the oil-impregnated bronze shoulder spacers found at the bed
hinge points. Do not lubricate these spacers. Replace as needed.
⎯ Check the grease present on the components detailed in section 2.2, lubricate if needed
(see section 2.2). Lubricate them at least every two years.
⎯ On both sides of the bed, depress fully down the side of the pedal identified with a red
sticker and ensure that the brakes are applied and the bed is immobilized. Toggle the pedal
to neutral and ensure the brakes are released.
⎯ On both sides of the bed, depress fully down the side of the pedal identified with a green
sticker and ensure that the steer wheel is engaged. Toggle the pedal to neutral and ensure
that the steer wheel disengages.
⎯ Siderails move, latch and stow properly.
⎯ All controls of the foot end panel working properly, including LED's.
⎯ Calibrate the scale (optional). Refer to the scale calibration procedure on page 41.
⎯ All siderail controls working properly.
⎯ Ensure that the nurse call (optional) alarm sounds in the nurse station.
⎯ Verify the CPR emergency release (optional) using both CPR release handles: raise the
Fowler fully up and, using the CPR handle, lower the Fowler gradually to flat position by
pulling, holding and releasing the handle several times. Ensure the Knee Gatch (if raised)
also starts flattening when the Fowler is completely down. Following the complete lowering
of the Fowler, wait approximately 30 seconds - the time for the Fowler actuator to reset - and
verify that the actuator has indeed reset itself by raising the Fowler fully up.
⎯ Verify the Fowler, Knee Gatch and Hi-lo movements to ensure that the motion interrupt
switch integrated to the four electric actuators is operating properly.
⎯ Auxiliary outlet (option available only with 120V beds) working properly.
⎯ Night light (optional) working properly.
⎯ No cracks in the boards, siderails, wheel covers, steer wheel hood (optional) and plastic
covers (optional) of the head and foot sections.
⎯ Head end bumpers tightly secured to frame and working properly.
⎯ No rips or cracks in mattress cover. Replace if so.
⎯ Power cord intact.
⎯ No cables pinched or worn.
⎯ All electrical connections tight.
⎯ All grounds secure to the frame.
⎯ All casters roll properly. Check caster for cuts, wear, etc.
⎯ Measure current leakage and grounding continuity of the bed and the auxiliary outlet
(optional). Check with our Technical Service (see section 1.2) for the acceptable values.
