AM-BA SERIES HI-LO TREATMENT TABLES
Armedica Treatment Tables are intended to be used as physical therapy supports for patients during
clinician attended physical therapy related diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring. The table is equipped
with a vertical table height adjustment actuator and casters for mobile transport.
Patients are not to be left unattended.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove all packaging material from the tables.
2. There is no assembly required on the ARMEDICA™ Treatment Tables.
3. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded 120 Volt AC outlet and follow the procedure outlined in
the Precautionary Instructions.
4. The table is equipped with four total lock swivel casters for maximum stability.
5. The motor is equipped with a thermal cutout that protects it from overheating.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To adjust the height of the ARMEDICA™ Treatment Tables, a foot bar extending the length of the table is used
to activate the electric motor assembly. Pressing down on the bar will raise the table. Pulling up on the bar will
lower the table.
Duty cycle on/off Int. 1 min./ 9 min.
TABLE SECTION ADJUSTMENTS
The sections of the ARMEDICA™ Treatment Tables are raised by lifting them with both hands. The locking
mechanism holds them securely at any angle. To lower a section hold it in one hand and release the locking
mechanism by turning the knob with the other.
CAUTION: When lowering any of the table sections, make certain that your hands are placed where they
cannot come in contact with the board supports.
CAUTION: When adjusting the sections with the patient on the table, be sure that the patient’s weight is not on
the section you are going to adjust.
To adjust the center section on the AM-300 and AM-500 the spring-loaded lock must be released before the
section can be raised.
CAUTION: When the center section is lowered, make sure that the lock is properly engaged.
To adjust the foot section on the AM-400 and AM-450, rotate the knob to the unlock position.
To adjust the arm rest on the 3 piece head section, use two hands placed on each end and pull out to the side
then raise or lower into the up or down position and release.
CAUTION: Make sure the arm rest on the 3 piece head section is locked securely in position before the patient
places any weight on it.

PRECAUTIONARY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read, understand and practice the precautionary instructions in this manual. The AM-BA
series treatment table is an adjustable platform to place the patient on for the clinician to
diagnose or treat with another modality. Know the limitations and the hazards associated
with the ARMEDICA™ Treatment Tables.
2. The table is not intended to be used inside an operating room. There may be a risk of
explosion if table is used in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
3. The motor is double insulated for protection from EMI. This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for medical devices to the IEC 60601-1-2: Third edition
2007-03. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a typical medical installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to other devices, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving device.
Increase the separation between the equipment.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
other device(s) are connected.
Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for assistance.
4. Always make certain all four casters are locked prior to patient use.
5. Always use both hands when changing the angle of any section of the table.
6. Never change the angle of any section when the patient’s weight is on that section.
7. Never place your hands or feet nor the patient’s hands or feet near any of the working
mechanisms of the table when raising or lowering the table.
8. Never leave patient unattended.
MAINTENANCE
The ARMEDICA™ Treatment Tables are equipped with a maintenance free electric motor. The
moving parts of the table should have a drop of oil placed on them approximately every six
months.
Frequently check to make certain that all hardware (nuts, bolts, etc.) are properly adjusted and
securely fastened.
In the event it becomes necessary to replace the activation bar cord or the power cord, make
certain that the plug is in properly and the locking tabs on the motor are snapped into place.
The vinyl cover should be cleaned with mild soap and water and the table frame wiped with a
dry cloth to remove dust and lint when necessary.

SYMBOLS AND INDICATORS
Attention: Consult accompanying documents.
Type B Equipment: “An adequate degree of protection against electric shock is provided,
particularly regarding leakage currents and reliability of the protective earth connection.”

MICRO SWITCHES
The bar activated treatment table is equipped with 4 micro switches located in the box
mounted on the foot end of the base. The switches are designed to provide years of
reliable service. In the rare case that a switch does become inoperative, the box at the end
of the table must be accessed. The switches are low voltage and are not a shock hazard.
However caution should be used while servicing. The wires connecting the terminals to the
switch are light gage and easily damaged. To replace a micro switch, follow these
instructions while referring to switch box and wire diagram drawings.
DISCONNECT THE TABLE FROM THE WALL OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING SWITCH
1. Remove the cover plate (49) by removing 2 screws (145) from the top and 2 black
plastic reusable rivets (87) from the bottom. Carefully slide the blade of the screw driver
under the head of the rivet so damage to the finish does not occur. The head of the rivet
will pop up allowing it to be removed. DO NOT DISCARD RIVETS.
2. Using both hands, gently remove cover plate by pulling directly away from mounted
switch plate (50).
3. After determining which micro switch is not functioning by pushing or pulling on the foot
bar, disconnect the table from the power source.
4. Using a 5/16” wrench remove two nuts (18) from the threaded studs and carefully
remove the switch taking care not to damage the wires connected to it.
5. Remove the terminals from the switch by gently tugging on them. DO NOT PULL WIRE.
6. After the micro switch is disconnected, reconnect the replacement switch referring to the
wire diagram found in this manual making certain the terminals are securely connected.
7. Once the wire terminals are connected to the replacement switch, make sure the plastic
spacers (55) are on the threaded stud prior to reinstalling replacement switch.
8. Replace nuts (18) and securely tighten taking care not to over tighten.
9. Reconnect table to power source and test. Providing the table is operating correctly,
replace cover plate ensuring that the side shields (146) are in place and reusing the
screws, washers and plastic rivets.
