Daily Checks
Daily checks of the equipment should be carried out by carers. These checks are not technical but a basic un-
derstanding of the product is needed. Multiple daily checks may be needed in schools or therapy rooms where
the products are used by multiple users. The checks should include the following points:
•
Check that all nuts and bolts are in place and secured
•
Check that all mechanical movements operate fully
•
Check the structure of the product for signs of fatigue
•
Castors: Lift base and check each wheel to ensure it is not loose or worn. Remove any grease or dirt that
has built up on the wheels, check that the brake stops the wheels rotating (where applicable)
•
Check gas springs for normal operation and resistance. Slow descent (creeping) of the gas spring can be
checked by observing the position of the unit over a period of time
•
Check that gas spring levers are not bent. Do not use the product if any levers are bent. Contact Jenx
