2.1. Usage
TRITON 6M Traction table is designed to treat the spine under traction together with the traction unit.
Traction treatments are performed in order to increase spinal mobility and decompression by relaxing
tense muscles and increasing intervertebral disc spacing and foraminal encroachment, which leads to
a reduction of oppression and irritation of the nerve roots and improvement of circulation in the area of
the vertebral artery.

7. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION !
We recommend cleaning and/or disinfecting the upholstered surfaces and other parts of the
tables after each use to ensure proper hygiene level.
CAUTION !
Before cleaning the table, ensure that the electrical power supply cable has been disconnected
from the supply in the room to prevent accidental movement of the table.
CAUTION !
Estimated shelf life of the device is 7 years. After 7 years from the date of table manufacture,
(and its equipment), the manufacturer is not held accountable for any flaws of the device (and its
equipment), as well as their consequences.
7.1. Cleaning the upholstery
Clean and maintain the upholstered surfaces as follows:
- clean regularly with warm water and mild detergent (e.g. soap) solution; use soft cloth or sponge;
- rub the more heavily stained areas with a soft, damp brush;
- after cleaning, wipe dry with a soft cloth;
- in case the surface has been stained with ball pen ink, lipstick, ink etc., remove the stain
immediately by rubbing it with a soft cloth.
Avoid extensive wetting of the surface of the table.
Disinfect the upholstery and other surfaces using Incidin Foam or similar formula (available at Meden-
Inmed).
Never use:
- cleaning paste, wax, sprays;
- strong detergents, solvents and cleaning agents containing solvents, cleaning preparations for
natural leather.
Use of such preparations may cause stiffening and breakages of the cover material as well as
adverse change of the glossy finish of the upholstery surface which is not covered by the warranty.
Disinfection with the use of the UV rays does not affect the surface of the upholstery.

01-12-2017 TRITON 6M User Manual.doc Strona 19 z 27
7.2. Maintenance of the mechanical parts
Clean the metal parts with a soft, damp sponge. Wipe the parts dry immediately after cleaning. Do not
use cleaning agents containing alcohol.
All movable joints must be lubricated every six months or when experiencing squeaks or other noise.
These joints include in particular:
- axles of transport wheels,
- actuator mounting shafts,
- boom arm sleeve bearing.
- mechanism of sliding section of movable part of the bed.
We recommend using any available retail lubricants. Protect the upholstered parts from contact with
the lubricants and remove any excess amounts or leaks of these with a dry cloth.
Check the threaded joints periodically every six months and tighten loose connections with a
screwdriver, hex keys (no 4, 5, 6) and flat (10, 13 and 19 mm). Especially:
- bolts attaching the boom arms to the lower and upper frame;
- gas springs piston road press bolts.
Report all loose connections that cannot be tightened to the manufacturer’s authorized service centre
and stop using the table until the cause of the problem is resolved.
7.3. Checking the gas springs
TRITON 6M Traction tables are equipped with gas springs for easy adjustment of the arms, chest &
head and leg section inclination angle. To ensure proper performance of the gas springs check the
springs visually for leaks every 3 months. Any perceived performance deficiency or leak must be
reported to your local DJO technical service centre immediately.
7.4. Checking the actuator
TRITON 6M Traction tables are equipped with electric actuator which changes the height of the table.
In order to ensure the proper performance of the electric actuator we recommend a check every 3
months for any unexpected sounds (rattles, squeaks etc). Any perceived performance deficiency must
be reported to your local DJO technical service centre immediately and stop using the table until the
cause of the problem is removed.

7.5. Periodic check of electrical safety
The electrical safety check should be performed or ordered not less than once every 2 years, and
after every fault or repair of the actuator and/or the power mechanism of the traction table. As a basic
requirement, the review should include:
- check for mechanical damage of wiring system of the table;
- check for mechanical damage of actuators and control case;
- an examination of the height adjustment and pivot function switches;
- electrical safety tests should be performed according to PN-EN 62353.
Protective earth resistance should be performed from the point indicated in the picture 13.
