Warning Indicators and Disassembly Procedure Example
The following examples illustrate how the disassembly procedures are structured as
well as the warning indicators used when performing maintenance in the field. The
disassembly procedures apply to chapters 2, 3, and 4, although each chapter will cover the
steps necessary to perform maintenance on a specific product.
Warning Indicators
First and foremost, it is crucial that the technician be familiar with the indicators
used when performing maintenance on the Neptune Waste Management System. The
words WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE each carry a special meaning.
WARNING: Disregarding WARNING information may compromise the
safety of the patient and/or health care staff and may
result in injury.
CAUTION: Disregarding CAUTION information may compromise
product reliability and may result in damage.
NOTE: NOTE information supplements and/or clarifies procedural
information.
A triangle with an exclamation point alerts the technician
to read and understand the accompanying instructions,
especially the operating, maintenance, and
safety information.
A triangle with water droplets alerts the technician that the
associated repair step may potentially expose the technician
to fluids. (fresh water or surgical waste) A fluid warning poses
a potential hazard to both personnel and equipment.
Disassembly Basics
The disassembly procedures provide a step-by-step illustration of how the
Neptune Waste Management system is disassembled. As a general rule, each
product’s disassembly section begins with the steps required to remove the covers. It is
important for the technician to understand that the subsequent procedures begin with
the assumption that the covers have been removed to gain access to the system.
Certain procedures are longer than others and therefore include the steps to remove the
necessary covers. The disassembly procedures outline the steps necessary to remove
all of the subsystems and circuit boards in each product.
