1. Introduction
1.1. Introduction
The shower stretcher / dressing table is a medical device for caring for and washing
less able persons in an ergonomically responsible manner. Comfort is the primary
consideration for both the less able person and the carer.
Lopital supplies various versions of its shower stretchers and dressing tables. The range
includes stretchers / dressing tables that are secured to a wall, mobile shower stretchers
/ dressing tables and shower stretchers / dressing tables that are non-mobile. The height

and sliders such as the EasySlide. These are the essential functions of a shower stretcher /
dressing table.

3. Operation
3.1. Wheel blocking
(Only on mobile variant)
• The brake can be applied on the shower stretcher / dressing table by pushing the blue
lip (1) on the wheel downwards (See figure 1).
• In order to take the shower stretcher / dressing table off the brake, the same lip on the
wheel must be moved upwards by tapping the upper side of the lip (2) (See figure 1).
3.2. Side bars
• The shower stretcher / dressing table is equipped with
steel, hinged side bars. The side bars are made of stainless
steel on the Stylex.
• The side-bar is equipped with safeguards so that the less
able person cannot raise the side-bars himself.
• Before the side-bar is collapsed downwards, the safeguard
must be unlocked.
• Wall mounted stretcher / dressing table: Unlock the
safeguard by using one hand to pull the protruding lip /
button (1) outwards and raising the side-bar with your
other hand. (See Figures 2 and 3).
Mobile stretcher / dressing table: Unlock the safeguard by removing the bolts on both
sides of the side bar (1) (See figure 4).
• Turn the unlocked side bar outwards (3).
• Move the side-bar upwards in order to lock it in place again. The side bar is locked on
the mobile shower stretcher / dressing table by securing the bolts in the appropriate
position. With the wall stretchers / dressing tables, the side bar locks automatically.
• Sirocco: Make sure that the corner flaps fall inwards so that they do not get jammed in
the side-bar locks.

put the brake on the wheels and then move the shower
stretcher / dressing table upwards.
• The shower stretcher / dressing table moves gently and
evenly upwards as a result of tapping the foot-pedal
(See figure 7).
• During use of the pedal, the carer will stand by the long
edge of the shower stretcher / dressing table so that the
carer cannot twist their upper body away from their feet.
• During the upward movement, maintain contact with the less able person.
Moving downwards
• The shower stretcher / dressing table moves downwards as
a result of pushing the foot pedal downwards
(See figure 8).
• The shower stretcher / dressing table lowers under the
influence of gravity. The lowering speed can be modified by
keeping the pedal gently depressed.
• During the downward movement, maintain contact with
the less able person.
3.4. Water drainage
(Only for Stylex, Sirocco and Amfora with drip tray)
• Water is drained away from the shower stretcher via a drainage hose.
• Take the hose off the hook and direct it to a drainage point that is as low as possible.
• During transport, always hang the hose on the hook otherwise it may leak and drip.
3.5. Changing batteries
(only relates to electrical adjustable versions)

positioned next to the electronic housing and then clicked
into the holder.
Make sure that the shower stretcher / dressing table is
always ready for use by having a fully charged reserve
battery on standby.
3.6. Charging batteries
(only relates to electrical adjustable versions)
• Place the empty battery on the battery charger
(See figure 10).
• A green light indicates that the battery charger is switched
on. An orange light indicates that the battery must be
charged. This light goes off if the battery is full.
• The charged battery can remain on the battery charger
without being damaged.
• In order to remove the battery, use one hand to unlock the
catch on the battery and the other to support the battery
itself.
Only use batteries that are supplied with the shower stretcher / dressing table.
Charge batteries that are not used, once every six months to avoid damage.
Charging the batteries before they are completely empty will extend their
lifespan.
The charger that must be used for the shower stretcher / dressing table is the
‘Linak External charger CHJ2’.
Charge batteries in a well-ventilated, dry space.

In the centre of the undercarriage, there is an emergency stop
button. Operate this button in an emergency; if the upward
or downward movement must be stopped immediately. After
the emergency stop has been pressed, all electrical operation
will cease to function. Operation may be continued once the
situation is stable again. Turn the emergency stop a quarter
turn to unlock it again.
First check to ensure the hazard has been removed
or the problem resolved, before resetting the emergency stop.
4.2. Emergency lowering button
(only relates to electrical adjustable versions)
If the controls stop working and the shower stretcher /
dressing table is in a raised position, it can be lowered using
the emergency lowering button. This button is located to the
left of the emergency stop button (See figure 12).
First check to ensure that the emergency button has not been
pressed!
- Remove the plug from the manual control.
- Press the emergency lower button (to the left of the emergency stop).
The shower stretcher / dressing table will now return to the lowest position (make sure
no persons or objects are under the stretcher).
Take the less able person from the shower stretcher / dressing table and make sure the
device is not used until it has been repaired. Place the shower stretcher / dressing table
in a safe place and indicate that it is out of order.

5. Cleaning and maintenance
The shower stretcher / dressing table must be cleaned after every use, with water and
regular household cleaning agents. Remove excess soap residues. Do not use any abrasive
or other aggressive cleaning products (e.g. chlorine bleach). Practical experience has
shown that regular household cleaning agents with limited alcohol content (max. 5%)
are most suitable for this purpose. The product Neoquat combi® is recommended for
disinfection purposes (on the basis of long-term testing). For the best and most efficient
cleaning of the mattress and the bed base, the mattress can be lifted up and removed.
Dry the plate on which the mattress lies.
Check the wheels regularly for hairs and dust and remove when necessary. Maintenance
and repairs to the shower stretcher / dressing table may only be carried out by authorised
personnel.

| Instructions for use | Shower stretcher / Dressing table
Maintenance schedule
After every use • The shower stretcher / dressing table can be cleaned with
water and regular household cleaning products.
Daily • Clean and disinfect mattress / harness.
Weekly
• Clean frame.
• Check wheels for hairs, dust and soap residues and remove if
necessary.
• Check that the shower stretcher / dressing table is still
working correctly.
Annually • According to the guidelines for medical devices, a shower
stretcher / dressing table must be maintained in line with
the manufacturer’s instructions. This process will preferably
be carried out by Lopital or another authorised body. Lopital
offers the option of having the shower stretcher / dressing
table thoroughly inspected and serviced once a year via
Periodic Preventative Maintenance.
6. Storage and transport
During transport and storage, the ambient conditions must remain moderate. In other
words, the temperature should remain between -40 and +55 degrees Celsius (-40 to
130 degrees Fahrenheit) and humidity levels should be kept as low as possible. Vibration
during transport must be kept to a minimum in order to avoid damaging the hinged
mechanisms on the stretcher.

the parts to the engineer for destruction. We will ensure that all parts are processed in an
environmentally-friendly manner.
If you take care of disposal of the product yourself, you must take account of the fact that
batteries and chargers must be disposed of as small chemical waste.
