Upholstery

Equipment Alert: The upholstery is resistant to most medicinal-type stains, but may be damaged by solvents and dyes. Immediately remove any fluids spilled on the upholstery.

Wash your upholstery weekly with a mild liquid soap and water mixture, rinse with clear water and dry completely to remove disinfection cleaner buildup.

Disinfect your upholstery with a solution of standard bleach and water mixed 1 in 10 (10%) or chlorine based cleaners. Follow this with a clear water rinse and thorough drying of material. See current CDC Guideline for Disinfection and Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities.

To minimize damage caused by disinfectant cleaner residue buildup, do not allow disinfectants to pool on the upholstery surface. Once the approved contact time has been obtained, remove and dry excess liquid remaining on the surface.

Painted Metal / Plastic Surfaces

Clean the painted metal and plastic surfaces weekly using a clean soft cloth and mild cleaner.

Periodically inspect the following areas:

• Power cord(s) should be free of cuts or other visible damage.

• All fasteners should be in place and tightened securely.

• All mechanical functions should operate properly.

Periodically lubricate the back hinge to maintain quiet, smooth, operation (use light machine oil).

Have a qualified service technician inspect your equipment every twelve months.

* Crash Avoidance System

This chair is equipped with Midmark’s Crash Avoidance System. The system is designed to prevent injury and equipment damage by disabling certain functions if the chair is in a potential “crash position”.

The chair is considered to be in a potential “crash position” when the system’s sensors and switches indicate that the foot section is close to colliding with the floor, or another foreign object. On 647 models, the system also monitors the position of the back section to prevent it from colliding with the floor.

The Crash Avoidance System may affect any combination of the functions listed: Tilt Up / Down, Back Down, Base Down

Range of Motion:

• Back Function: Full Down: 0° ±1/2°, Full Up: 80° ±3°

• Base Function (Standard Base): Full Down: 19 in. (48 cm), Full Up: 40 in. (101 cm)

• Base Function (Rotational Base): Full Down: 22.5 in. (57 cm), Full Up: 43.5 in. (110 cm)
