Operation
After successfull assembly and electric connection, start ignition of vehicle
and turn on the blue main switch.
The Hoverboard now automatically adjusts to the patient's weight and rises to the level
for optimal suspension comfort, the switch lights up blue.
The Hoverboard is all-automatic, i.e. when the supply pressure
decreases to 8 bar (116 psi), the compressor starts again for approx. 20 seconds,
so that there is always sufficient operating pressure.
By switching off the ignition or pressing the main switch again,
the Hoverboard lowers automatically for easy loading and unloading.
It also lowers by unlocking the stretcher on the Hoverboard.
Pressing the red switch for the CPR-position (for resuscitation) raises the Hoverboard
to the highest (fixed) position, the switch lights up red.
This function is only active when the main switch is switched on.
By pressing it again, the Hoverboard gently lowers to suspended mode.
ATTENTION:
When lifting to the highest position, the compressor runs continuously up to 4 minutes.
Multiple lifting in short intervals will overheat the compressor !

Unlock lateral
movement device
By pushing one of the pushbuttons, the lateral movement device (option)
will unlock pneumatically. While keeping pushed, you can move the Hoverboard
crosswise in 8 positions of 32 mm / 1,25" (total = 256 mm / 10").
Releasing the button means locking in the nearest position.
This option also works with ignition off.
The thermal protection switch will turn off the compressor and it takes approx. 1 hour to cool down !

Operation
The pneumatic release is supplied by the air tank, which will only be refilled
when the main switch is on.
Frequently use while the Hoverboard is switched off leads to temporary malfunction.
In case of malfunction or lack of air pressure you may unlock it by the knobs.
For correct loading and unloading please refer to the instructions of the stretcher.
Please pay attention to the correct locking of the stretcher on the Hoverboard.

The serial number is located on the bottom
of the plate at the right end
and contains the production date.
E.g. serial number 212105 means:
2021 - 21th week, 5th production unit.
Please always quote this number for any complaints or spare parts orders !

Maintenance
www.hover.at
One of the many advantages of the Hoverboard-types Airbase, Powerbase, Inbase
and Vivibase compared to conventional stretcher tables is that they are not classified as
medical devices according to Medical Devices Act (MPG) and are therefore not required
to be checked mandatory every year.
Hoverboards are basically maintenance-free, but we recommend an annual inspection
with a functional check, regarding e.g. the Powerbase, as part of the maintenance
of the stretcher.
This can be managed by one of our certified service partners, whom you find up-to-date on
You may also contact us directly if you have any questions or problems.

Purification
All Hoverboards are made of high quality stainless steel of the type 1.4301 and
are carefully processed in protective atmosphere.
However, „stainless“ does not mean that the material is resistant to all aggressive chemicals,
such as e.g. ionized chlorine solutions.
At outside temperatures below -5 ° (23F), calcium chloride is often used as antifreeze solution,
which is much more aggressive than the commonly used sodium chloride (“common salt”).
This aggressive solution is brought to the surface of the plate by the wheels of the stretcher
and causes surface corrosion as a result.
For a consistently beautiful appearance, it is therefore important to rinse and wipe the surface
of the plate daily with clear water during such conditions.
A final impregnation with oil-based stainless steel care products can also help prevent corrosion.
On request, we will be happy to send you a special cleaning and care set.

Disinfection
Quality
On the European market, there is such an abundance of disinfectants, solvents and cleaning agents ,
so that not every single product can be tested.
In addition, the manufacturers are constantly changing and adapting their recipes.
That is why we only use 1.4301 quality for all stainless steel parts, because it means
the optimal synthesis of corrosion protection, processability and cost.
The correct (means not too high) concentration of the disinfectant is most important.
or other corrosive ingredients !Never use disinfectants with chloroacetic acid
The bellows is made of polyester fabric with a PVC coating and a PVC support frame.
These materials are generally trouble-free, but too high concentrations of disinfectants
may cause color damage (bleaching).
The disinfectant also should not remain on the surface anywhere, but should be wiped off
after it has acted or also rinsed away with clear water.
All Hoverboards are tested in accordance with the latest standards by DEKRA in Klettwitz
and comply with EN 1789: 2020, EN 1865-5: 2012 and ECE R17 (20 g test).
The Hoverboard Powerbase has also been tested by Stryker Medical EMS (USA)
and is homologated for use with the Stryker PowerLoad and PowerPRO XT.
The exclusive use of components of ISO certified pre-suppliers provides industrial manufacturing quality.
Because of our CIP (Continuos improvement programme) and advancement of our products,
your Hoverboard may vary from this description.
