4 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

4.1 ELECTRIC POWERED STRETCHERS
DANGER: SHOCK HAZARD -- To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the
cover. Unit is to be serviced by qualified service personnel (minimum 1 year medical equipment service and repair experience) only.
DANGER: SHOCK HAZARD -- Always disconnect the power source whenever
troubleshooting or servicing any electric powered stretcher.

If One motor or one column does not move but all others are operating correctly.
Nothing moves.
The unit runs when plugged into wall receptacle, but does not run on battery backup.

Then
Step 1: Check all motor and column plug connections at the controller.
Step 2: If a column does not move: Check the connection at the column.
Step 3: Plug a connector from the faulty component into a different socket.
If the component does not run: Replace that component.
If the component runs: Test pendant by plugging a functioning component into the non-functioning socket on the controller. If this component does not run, replace the pendant. If replacing the pendant does not fix the problem, then replace the controller. Step 1: Plug unit into main supply wall receptacle, then observe the pilot light on the controller.
If the pilot light is off: Replace the controller.
If the pilot light is on: 1. Check the nurse control plug connection at the controller. 2. Check the pendant control plug connection at the controller. 3. Ensure all lockout functions are deactivated. 4. Contact GF Health Products, Inc. for further help and instruction.
Step 1: Plug unit into a wall receptacle overnight.
If the batteries do not hold a charge, replace the batteries (section 4.2).

GF Health Products, Inc. may be contacted at 1.770.368.4700 for additional information required to service or repair the equipment.

4.2 BATTERY REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER: SHOCK HAZARD -- To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the
cover. Unit is to be serviced by qualified service personnel (minimum 1 year medical equipment service and repair experience) only.
DANGER: SHOCK HAZARD -- Always disconnect the power source whenever
troubleshooting or servicing any electric powered stretcher.
DANGER: PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD -- The batteries are wired in series; failure to
connect the same way can cause batteries to explode.
The batteries are the only field serviceable components -- do not attempt to repair the circuit boards. Battery replacement Step 1: Remove the controller.
Step 2: Remove the 4 screws from the right half, located on top of controller. Step 3: (After 4/11/00) replace (2) batteries with VISION CP1213, 12V 1.3 Ah (Hausted P/N 075759 2 required, for CB-12 controllers). Step 4: Ensure battery connector is in place on left side of batteries. Step 5: Replace cover.

RF emissions CISPR 11
RF emissions CISPR 11
Harmonic emissions IEC 61000-3-2
Voltage fluctuations / flicker emissions IEC 61000-3-3

Group 1 Class A Class A Complies

The Hausted Stretchers use RF energy only for their internal function. Therefore, their RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment.
The Hausted Stretchers are suitable for use in all establishments other than domestic and those directly connected to the public low-voltage power supply network that supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.

p) Applicable to ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS with RATED input current less than or equal to 16 A / phase.
q) At some phase angles, applying this test to ME EQUIPMENT with transformer mains power input might cause an overcurrent protection device to open. This can occur due to magnetic flux saturation of the transformer core after the voltage dip. If this occurs, the ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM shall provide BASIC SAFETY during and after the test.
r) For ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS that have multiple voltage settings or auto ranging voltage capability, the test shall be performed at the minimum and maximum RATED input voltage.

9.7 RECOMMENDED SEPARATION DISTANCES BETWEEN PORTABLE AND MOBILE RF COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT AND HAUSTED STRETCHERS

The Hausted Stretchers are intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Hausted Stretchers can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Hausted Stretchers as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Rated maximum output power of transmitter (W)

Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter (m)

150 kHz to 80 MHz d = 1.2P

80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 1.2P

800 MHz to 2.7 GHz d = 2.3P

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
