and maintenance instructions before using the table. The entire surgical ward staff should be familiar with the
correct use of the PROMERIX operating table as well as all warnings and observations concerning it.
Warnings and observations found in this instruction manual are indicated as follows:
WARNING! Please observe to ensure patient safety.
CAUTION! Please observe in order to avoid causing damage to the equipment or its parts.
NOTE! Please observe in order to improve operating table properties.
WARNINGS!
PromeriX operating table should only be used in facilities made for medical purposes.
IP X4 classification is valid only when the mains cord is disconnected.
Connect the mains cord only to earthed power supply.
PromeriX shall be operated from it’s internal battery if the integrity of the protective earth conductor
arrangement is in doubt.
Place the patient in the longitudinal center line of the table top.
In NORMAL mode max. patient weight with sliding seat section is 275 kg ( 600 lbs ).
In NORMAL mode max. patient weight without sliding seat section is 325 kg ( 700 lbs ).
In REVERSE mode max. patient weight is 180 kg ( 400 lbs ).
Adjust the table top to the horizontal position ( 0-position ) with the hand control unit before transporting a
patient on the operating table.
Transporting of patients weighing up to 180 kg ( 400 lbs ) is only allowed when table top is in horizontal posi-
tion ( 0-position ) and the height of the table is max 900 mm ( 3 ft ).

mode, in horizontal position ( 0-position ) and in the lowest position.
Transporting of patients weighing 225-325 kg ( 500-700 lbs ) is not allowed.
Use extreme caution when transporting the table with a patient on. Transporting of the table with a patient on
requires two persons. To maximize patient safety utilize proper restraint methods during transport.
To avoid endangering the patient's respiratory system, nerve pathways and circulatory system, the patient
should be positioned properly and kept under observation!
Check that table top sections catches lock correctly. Incorrect attachment of table sections is dangerous and
can cause personal injury or equipment damage!
Use only accessories recommended by the table manufacturer.
When adjusting the operating table, take care to avoid collision between accessories and the operatingtable.
Do not use worn or damaged accessories. When using the table, ensure that all accessories are properly
mounted and check the function of accessory locking and adjustments.
When adjusting the operating table, take care that the fingers, hands or other parts of the body of the patient
are not placed between edges of back, leg or seat section frames and pivoting points.
Use only permitted table top configurations illustrated in this manual.
Ensure before adjusting the operating table that table top will not hit external obstacles.
Ensure before adjusting the operating table that NORMAL/REVERSE mode has been chosen correctly and is
the same as patient's orientation on the table top. After use of main switch NORMAL mode is set as default.
Always follow manufacturer instructions when using diathermy or defibrillation equipment.
When using high frequency surgical equipment take care to prevent the patient coming into contact with
metal parts of the operating table or accessories. Do not place the patient on wet or damp surfaces or electri-
cally conductive pads. Hazard of burn injuries!
Combustible anaesthetic gases must not be used with the Promerix operating table.

When recharging the battery first plug the mains cord to table appliance inlet, after that to wall socket.
Main switch can be used as an emergency stopping device ( demanded by the standards ). Normally the
switch lever is in up position. When the lever is turned down in OFF position all table functions are cancelled.
Table movement stops immediately.
When recharging is completed disconnect the mains cord first from the wall socket, after that from the table
appliance inlet.
Disconnect the mains cord from the table and turn the main switch to OFF position before cleaning of the
table.
Disconnect the mains cord from the table before any service procedures. 100-240 V ~ used in power unit
placed in table base. Hazard of electric shock!
Promerix operating table has been tested to EN 60601-1-2 to ensure proper electromagnetic compatibility.
Other products used in the vicinity of Promerix operating table should also comply with this standard. If they
do not comply, interference between products in unintended responses may occur. Please contact the
appropriate manufacturer if any problems arise.
Portable and mobile RF-communications equipment can affect Promerix operating table.

If the operating table has been in the cold, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least 6 hours before
recharging the battery or switching on, to allow any condensation formed to evaporate.
Recharge the battery prior to use. See the starting instructions attached to table base panel.
OVERRIDE panel is only for returning the table top to the horizontal position in the case of electronic mal-
function. Override makes it possible to adjust table without the controlling processor and any of the pro-
grammed restrictions are not functioning.
Downwards adjusted leg or back section may hit the table base or column casings depending on the used
height or tilt angle adjustments. Can cause damage to the operating table and creating pinching hazard!
Do not place any objects on the base of the operating table! Danger of damage during adjustments!
The best place to store the hand control unit especially during transport is the lever under the head section.
Head and devided leg section 60475 gas springs can be disposed of as metal waste after nitrogen gas and
oil has been removed. Instructions for gas releasing available from your sales representative.
Operating table has been classified as splash proof equipment. Use of pressurized water is not allowed.
Cleaning and disinfecting should be made according to this manual.
Do not pull or push the shields of back and leg section joints. Check during adjustment that there is no fo-
reign obstacles between shields.
It is possible to adjust the SLIDE adjustment only when back or leg section are in horizontal or above hori-
zontal position. Slide adjustment will stop automatically before collision if back or leg section in under the
horizontal position.
SLIDE adjustment is only possible when table top is in horizontal position. Use of SLIDE adjustment is
restricted with tilted table top.
Mattresses should be cleaned only with neutral detergent ( ph 7-8 ).
The antistatic properties of the operating table require the use of original brand mattresses and antistatic
flooring.

NOTES!
WARNINGS, NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS
!
It’s recommended to recharge the battery overnight after day’s use. Table will be always ready for use and
the battery will have longer service life.
If the main switch is turned to OFF position ( downwards ), all table functions are blocked including recharg-
ing of the battery. Check that the green led above the charging inlet lights up when you connect the mains
cord to the table.
When mains cord is connected to operating table the cooling fan of the power unit is activated causing a
humming sound. After disconnecting the mains cord the cooling fan still runs for few seconds.
Turn the main switch to OFF position ( downwards ) when the table is not in use or stored for longer period of
time. This eliminates the possibility of unintended use and is also saving the battery capacity.
Activate the floor lock before adjusting the table. Only trendelenburg and back rest adjustments are function-
ing if floor lock is not activated.
Cardboard packing material should be recycled. Wood and plastics are energy waste.
Batteries contain lead and if replaced, need to be recycled in accordance with local environmental regula-
tions.
Velcro tapes on table top plates can be cleaned with pressurized air. Velcro tape can also be replaced; spare
parts and instructions available from Merivaara service dpt.
Floor lock can be deactivated with a release knob placed at the table base if normal deactivating with hand
control unit or override panel can’t be done. Turn the knob 90° clockwise and the table will descend on to its
castors. Turn the knob back to its original position after releasing.
