USE CONDITIONS
WARNING
WARNING — POSSIBLE
EXPLOSION HAZARD: Do not
operate the table in the presence of
flammable anesthetics. The OPERON
B 810 table is designed for use in non-
hazardous anesthetizing locations.
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING
WARNING — ELECTRICAL
HAZARD: Repeated breaker tripping
or fuse replacement may indicate a
ground fault or overload condition.
The table will not operate reliably
under such a condition and may be
electrically unsafe. Do not use the table
until this condition is corrected.
PINCH POINTS
WARNING
WARNING — Cutting or crushing
injury may occur if any part of a
patient or staff member is caught in a
pinch point when the table is
articulated.
CAUTION
CAUTION — Damage to the table or
object may occur if any foreign object,
is caught in a table pinch point when
the table is articulated.
Pinch points include, but are not limited to:
1. Kidney elevator to seat top
2. Kidney elevator to seat channels
3. Kidney elevator to back section
4. Headrest to back section
5. Back section link to seat channel
6. Back section to side shields
7. Side shields to column shields (in tilt)
8. Column shields to base cover
9. Base to floor
10. Floor feet to base
11. Floor feet to floor
12. Leg section to column shield
This list is not all-inclusive because pinch points can
be created by the attachment of accessories. Always
check that the patient and staff are clear of pinch
points before and while the table is in motion. Refer
to FIGURE 2-1 for details.

LOAD CAPACITY
This table has a patient lifting and articulation
capacity of 600 lb (273 kg). Positioning and
constraints are discussed on page S-3. Do not exceed
this maximum load in service. See FIGURE S-1.
WARNING
WARNING — Overloading may
result in tipping of the table or failure
of the table sections to move. Do not
exceed the maximum load in service.
NOTE
NOTE — The use of some
positioning capabilities or table
accessories will put additional
restrictions on patient weight.
Accessories provided by Berchtold
Corp., when used as intended, are
designed to perform safely with the
patient loads for which this table was
designed. A Berchtold Corporation
accessory that puts additional
restrictions on patient weight, when
used as intended, will be clearly
labeled to indicate the maximum
allowed loads.
The table load capacity is 400 lb (181 kg)) when the
beach chair accessory is installed on the table.
The table load capacity is 300 lb (136 kg) when the
fracture attachment unit is installed on the table.

PATIENT POSITIONING
WARNING
WARNING — POSSIBILITY OF
TIPPING: Table stability may be
compromised if patients are
positioned beyond the following
limits:
Normal Patient Orientation
The patient's pelvis should not be
extended beyond the end of the seat
section. The patient’s legs may be
placed on a leg extension attached to
the end of the leg section.
Reversed Patient Orientation
The Patient's pelvis should not be
extended beyond the back section. The
patient’s legs may be placed on a leg
extension attached to the end of the
back section.
WARNING
WARNING — POSSIBILITY OF
TIPPING: If FULL SLIDE
FORWARD IS REQUIRED, the
patient’s pelvis must always be
located over the seat section when in
normal orientation. Utilizing full
forward slide while the patient’s
pelvis is on the leg section can impair
table stability and result in patient
injury or equipment damage.
WARNING
WARNING — The leg section may be
removed from the table. If it is left
on the table, use caution when raising
the leg section while the patient is in
the normal perineal position.
Full articulation and full slide in either direction can
be safely achieved with a 600lb (273kg) patient if
these steps are followed.
PATIENT ORIENTATION
WARNING
WARNING — Before positioning the
table, be sure the correct table
orientation is selected as indicated by
the NORM or REV indictor on the
primary control pendant. Improper
orientation will result in reverse
functioning and potential patient injury.
OPERATION
WARNING
WARNING— The table should
always be locked to the floor
whenever a patient is on the table or
being transferred to or from the table.
This is accomplished by extending the
table’s feet by activating the FLOOR
LOCK function. This table is not
intended for patient transport.
CAUTION
CAUTION — Storage of clamps,
accessories, etc., on the base cover
may result in damage to lift column
shields and prevent proper elevation
or descent of the table.

GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Berchtold OPERON B 810 surgical table is a
remote controlled, full-function design offering a
high level of patient positioning and imaging
flexibility to the surgical team. The table can be
activated by AC power through the power cord (input
range of 115V ±10%) or by battery power, which
requires no power cord except when charging the
batteries.
An electric motor with a belt driven screw is used to
slide the table top head to foot.
Hydraulic cylinders are used to articulate the table's
sections. Hydraulic pressure is provided by a motor
driven pump during normal use, and by a manual foot
pump in manual back-up mode.
A hand-held control pendant is used to control table
positions.
The tabletop is divided into the following sections
(FIGURE 1-1):
•Headrest
•Back Section
•Kidney Elevator
•Seat Section
•Leg Section
A leg extension can be added to extend the tabletop
surface.

CAUTION
CAUTION — The anti-static
properties of the table depend on the
use of the recommended mattress.
Compromise of the anti-static
properties could expose the patient or
OR personnel to an electrostatic
shock. It could also deliver a shock to
the table’s electronics that could
damage or destroy critical
components.
The tabletop surface is made from electrically
conductive radiolucent panels. The table is fitted with
a matching set of conductive radiolucent pads. Velcro
tape holds the pads in place.
CAUTION
CAUTION — Protect the top and
bottom surfaces from nicks and
scratches. Scratches more than 0.005
inches (127 microns) deep may appear
on x-rays. Damaged or scratched
panels should be replaced if x-ray
quality is affected.
Each table section has a cassette channel that can
accommodate x-ray cassettes up to 14'' x 17'' (356 x
432 mm).
INTERCHANGEABLE HEADREST
The tabletop has perineal cutouts in both seat and
back sections. The back/seat pad can be reversed to
expose the desired cutout. The headrest can be
interchanged to allow for normal and reversed patient
orientation.

POWER SUPPLY
WARNING
WARNING — Repeated breaker
tripping or fuse replacement may
indicate a ground fault or overload
condition. The table will not operate
reliably under these conditions, and
may be electrically unsafe. Do not use
the table until these conditions are
corrected.
NOTE
NOTE — Recharge the batteries as
indicated by the battery indicator on
the control pendant. For longevity, it
is good practice to charge the
batteries at least once a week
The locations of the primary Power Supply
components are shown in FIGURE 1-2.
When the table is plugged into a 120VAC receptacle,
it is powered by AC (mains). When the power cord is
not plugged in, the batteries provide power to the
table. In either case, the ON/OFF switch on the base
must be ON to articulate any table sections. When the
ON/OFF switch on the base is OFF, the table's
electronics and pump motor are isolated from the
power supply and the batteries, regardless of the
pendant used.
When the charge indicator lamp near the power cord
receptacle is lit, the table senses AC power and
activates the battery charging system. If AC is
present, the battery charging system is activated
whether the ON/OFF switch on the base is in the ON
or OFF position. The table can remain plugged into
AC indefinitely without damaging the batteries. The
battery indicator on the primary hand pendant
displays the battery charge status. This display has
three sections: green (full charge), yellow (low
charge) and red (recharge). Only one color will be
activated at a time.
NOTE
NOTE — In the unlikely event of a
control pendant failure, the table
movements can be stopped by
switching the breaker on the base to
the off (down) position.

The first set, located within the receptacle for the
power cord, contains two fuses labeled F1 and
F2. These fuses protect against current surges in
the AC (mains) line.
The second set, located behind the hinged door
next to the ON/OFF switch, contains three fuses.
Two of these fuses protect against surges in the
DC circuitry; one fuse serves as a spare. Fuses
F3 and F4 are 20 Amp rated.

Fuse Information
FIGURE 1-3 PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION AND FUSE INFORMATION LABEL
Two in-line 250V/0.6A fuses protect various
components on the AC line. One fuse, located
near the head side of the column protects the
CPU from power surges (FIGURE 4-41). The
second fuse, located on the right side of the
column, is in the line between the AC mains and
the transformer. One spare fuse is included
inside the base cover.
FLOOR LOCK SYSTEM
Four self-stabilizing floor feet compensate up to
0.25'' (6 mm) for unlevel floors. The floor feet
can be lowered (locked) or raised (unlocked)
using the control pendant. When the floor feet
are raised, the table rests on four non-conductive
casters.
PRIMARY HAND PENDANT
A primary hand pendant controls all table
functions. The floor feet must be locked by
activating the FLOOR LOCK function to operate
any other pendant functions. This ensures that
the table base will not move while the tabletop is
articulating.
The primary hand pendant plugs into the right
side of the remote control connector box, which
is located on the left side of the table (FIGURE
1-4). Insert the pendant so the red dot on the
connector aligns with a red dot on the socket in
the Primary Hand Pendant Connector Box.
NOTE
NOTE — The ON/OFF function
on the control pendant can be
used to stop the table while in
motion.
