INTRODUCTION
14. Avoid pulling the device on rough surfaces.
15. The device is a evacuation chair for patients transport and cannot be used as a stationing device.
16. Do not lift the transport chair with a crane or other mechanical lifts.
17. First practice with an empty chair in order to get used to the way in which the stretcher maneuvers.
18. For the use of the device, one operator in suitable physical conditions is needed, with strength, balance,
coordination, and common sense and must be trained on the correct functioning of the device Promeba,
S.L. stretcher.
19. For particularly heavy patient loading and for rescue operations on steep terrain or in unusual circum-
stances, the presence of more operators is recommended (not just one as required under standard condi-
tions).
20. The maximum weight supported by each sanitary technician must comply with the requirements pres-
cribed by the law of each country, regarding Occupational Health and Safety.
21. Before each use check the integrity of the belts and their hooks, as specified in the user’s manual. In case
of malfunction or damage that may compromise the function and safety of the device, patient or operator,
it is necessary to replace the belts.
22. Make sure the belts are properly fastened to the frame of the stretcher.
23. Always immobilize the patient using the belts supplied by the manufacturer; lack of immobilization can
cause serious damage.
24. Use the stretcher only as described in this user’s manual.
25. Do not alter or modify the evacuation chair arbitrarily to make it fit into the ambulance: the modification
may cause unforeseeable functioning and damages to the patient and operators. In any case the warranty
will be lost.
26. Pay a lot of attention to possible obstacles (water, ice, debris, etc.) on the route of the stretcher, because
they could cause loss of balance for the operator and compromise the proper functioning of the device. If
you cannot set the path free from obstacles, choose an alternative path.
27. For very steep slopes the device must be raised. Always hold the frame or the telescopic handles to lift
and transport the chair.
28. Condensation, water, ice and accumulations of dust can affect the correct operation of the device, ma-
king it unpredictable and causing a sudden alteration of the weight that operators have to carry.
29. The transport chair is certified for use with the specific fixing system of Promeba S.L., therefore the use
of any other fastener not approved by the manufacturer is prohibited. Fixing systems that have not been
approved can alter the structural and functional characteristics of the chairs
30. Replace the wheels with original parts, in case the device does not stop.
31. To avoid injury, always check that the carry handles are properly locked before lifting the chair.
32. It is recommended not to use the chair if it is suspected that the patient may have cervical trauma, da-
mage to the spine or fractures.
33. Use the brakes only when transferring the patient or when no one is on the chair. If the chair is moved
with the brakes locked, it could tip over and cause injury to the patient, operator, or equipment.
