· For particularly heavy patient loading and for rescue operations on steep terrain or in unusual cir-
cumstances, the presence of more operators is recommended (not just one as required under standard
conditions).
· The maximum weight sustained by each rescuer must comply with the requirements prescribed by
the law of the country, related to health and safety at work.
· Before each use, check the integrity of the belts and their hooks, as specied in the manual. In case of
malfunction or any damage that may compromise the function and safety of the device, the patient or
the operator, it is necessary to replace the belts.
· Make sure the belts are tight to the chassis of a stretcher/chair.
· Always immobilize the patient, using the straps supplied by the manufacturer; the lack of immobiliza-
tion can cause serious damage.
· Use the stretcher only as described in this manual.
· Do not alter or modify the stretcher arbitrarily to make it t into the ambulance: the modication can
cause unpredictable functioning and damage to the patient and operators. In any case the guarantee
will be lost.
· Pay close attention to possible obstacles (water, ice, debris, etc.) on the route of the stretcher/chair,
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.
· For height gradients, the device must be raised, taking care to grasp the structure and not from the
banks/platforms.
· Condensation, water, ice and accumulations of dust can aect the correct functioning of the device,
which makes it unpredictable and causes a sudden change in the weight that operators have to carry.
· Stretchers are certied for use with Promeba fastening systems, therefore, the use of belts not appro-
ved by the manufacturer is prohibited. Fastening systems that have not been approved can alter the
structural and functional characteristics of the chairs.
· Replace the wheels with original parts, in case of failure to stop the device.
