The extreme positioning capabilities of the 3600B
UltraSlideTable requiresspecial attentionfor pos-
sibleinterferencepoints when usingmultiplefunc-
tion positioning. As with the operation of any
surgical table, a certain amount of care should be
exercised to position the patient safely. Although
the thick pads and sheets substantially protect the
patient,pinchpoints,locatedatthejointsofthetop
section should always be considered. BE SURE
THAT THE ARMS, HANDS AND FINGERS OF
THE PATIENT AND THOSE OF THE OPERAT-
ING ROOM PERSONNEL ARE CLEAR OF ALL
MOVINGPARTSBEFOREMOVINGTHETABLE.
Properrestraintsshouldalwaysbeusedforpatient
safety.
Certain accessories such as the Uro-Drain Tray,
Armboards and X-Ray top can be damaged when
changing the position of the table top sections.
Always look first to see if a desired movement is
going to interfere with any accessories in use.
The operator has the ultimate responsibility of
preventing damage to the table and surrounding
equipment or possible injury to the patient or staff.
The operator must ensure proper positioning is
maintained to prevent compromising respiration,
nerve pathways or circulation.
In general, common sense will dictate when there
is a potential hazard.
The following precautions should be reviewed
by all personnel prior to operating the table.
A routine Instructional Program should be
implemented by the facility for proper usage
instructions for all personnel that may operate
this table.
WARNING

NOTE
Activating any function button will acti-

a visual assurance that the brakes are
locked without altering the table posi-
tion, except when emergency brake is
released.

NOTE
An equalization terminal is located un-
der the main power panel. This is pro-
vided as an alternate pathway to re-
duce the risk of static shock hazards.
Always follow recommended ground-
ing procedures to ensure patient and
staff safety.
NOTE
The table will operate correctly on bat-
tery power with the power cord con-
nectedtoa walloutletor disconnected.
NOTE
Battery Operation must be turned OFF
at the pendant control. It cannot be
turned OFF using the main power
switch.
NOTE
TurningtheMain PowerSwitchONwill
changethe table operationto 120VAC
power.
NOTE
When the red light starts to blink (indi-
cating low power in battery) the table
will operate for approximately 5 con-
tinuous minutes, typically long enough
to use the table for the rest of the day.
SPECIAL USER ATTENTION

NOTE
The charging system operates ONLY
when the table is in AC120V operation
mode.
NOTE
The table can be operated on 120VAC
power while the battery is being re-
charged.
NOTE
If the table is stored for a period greater
than 6 months, the batteries should be
removed and stored in a dry, clean con-
dition at a storage temperature of 68° F
(20° C). Batteries should be recharged
every 6 months of product storage.
WARNING
DO NOT unlock brakes when a patient
is on the table. An uneven patient
weight load may cause instability.
NOTE
Withanevenlydistributedpatientweight
load, all table positioning functions will
operate smoothly and quietly with a
patient weight of up to 800 pounds.

ray top prior to removing the Leg Sec-
tion.
WARNING
Ensure that the Leg and Back sections
are properly engaged and secured to
pins before use to prevent injury.

2-5. Charging the Battery
Batteries should be charged:
• When the table is placed into initial
service
• As indicated by Battery Indicator
• Every week under normal service
conditions
a. Battery Indicator The Battery Indicator
consists of ten lighted bars, 3 red, 4 yellow and 3
green. See figure 2-3. Each bar represents a
percentage of the battery charge condition. When
all ten bars are illuminated, the batteries are fully
charged. The following list shows the battery
charge level as indicated by the lighted bars;
3 green 100% -Fully charged
2 green 89%
1 green 78%
4 yellow 67%
3 yellow 56%
2 yellow 45% -Needs Charging (BATT
indicator on pendant will flash)
1 yellow 34% -Needs Charging
3 red 23% -Needs Charging
(poor performance)
2 red 12% -Needs Charging
(intermittent performance)
1 red 1% -Needs Charging
(inoperable)
During charging, the bars will light in sequence to
the respective charge level, turn off and light in
sequence again.
2-3. Battery Operation
a. Make sure the Main Power Switch indicator
light, on the electrical panel, are OFF. See figure
2-2. If the indicator light is ON, turn AC120V
operation OFF with the main power switch.
NOTE
The table will operate correctly on bat-
tery power with the power cord con-
nectedtoa walloutletor disconnected.
b. Press the BATT button on the hand-held
pendant control. The pendant control buttons, the
red BATTERY indicator light, located in the upper
right corner of the pendant control and the Battery
Indicator on the electrical panel will illuminate.
c. The table is now ready for BATTERY opera-
tion.
d. To extend the battery charge life, turn the
BATTERY power OFF with the pendant control
when the table is not going to be used.
NOTE
Battery Operation must be turned OFF
at the pendant control. It cannot be
turned OFF using the main power
switch.
2-4. Automatic Shut-Off
a. To prevent unnecessary discharge of the
battery, a timer is built into the battery circuit. This
timerwillautomaticallyshutthebatterypowerOFF
after 1½ hours of table inactivity.
b. To turn the table ON again, press the BATT
button on the pendant control, the pendant control
buttons and the red indicator light will illuminate.
NOTE

NOTE
When the red light starts to blink (indi-
cating low power in battery) the table
will operate for approximately 5 con-
tinuous minutes, typically long enough
to use the table for the rest of the day.
NOTE
The charging system operates ONLY
when the table is in AC120V operation
mode.
c.To rechargethebattery,makesurethepower
cord is connected, plugged into a 120VAC wall
outlet and the main POWER SWITCH - ON.
NOTE
The table can be operated on 120VAC
power while the battery is being re-
charged.
d. Afull batterycharge willlastapproximately2
weeks under normal operating conditions. How-
ever, it is recommended to charge the batteries at
theend of eachweekto establishanormal routine
protocol. Leadacid batterieslast longerif theyare
notpermitted tofullydischarge. Thetable features
(2) 12 volt, sealed, lead acid batteries which re-
quire no manual maintenance. Lead acid gel bat-
teries, under a proper charging program, feature
an approximate normal life of 4 years.
NOTE
If the table is stored for a period greater
than 6 months, the batteries should be
removed and stored in a dry, clean con-
dition at a storage temperature of 68° F
(20° C). Batteries should be recharged
every 6 months of product storage.
