4.5. Use
Carry out several trial runs to familiarise yourself with how the wash-trolley works.
4.5.1. Hydraulically-adjustable height
To raise the trolley, pump the height pedal until it reaches the desired level.
To lower it, lift the pedal at the foot of the stretcher or press the side pedals until the desired height is reached,
then let go.

5
While transporting and washing the patient, put the side rails.
4.5.2. Central braking (optional)
When the trolley does not need to be moved, apply the brakes by stepping on the pedal at the foot of the
stretcher. (position 1)
Check that the wheels are locked by trying to move the trolley.
You have two more positions: the free-wheel position (2) and the directional wheel position (3).
4.5.3. Side rails
The side rails must be moved by someone not on the stretcher. He or she must make sure that nothing is in
their way.
To lower the side rails :
With one hand, grasp the side rail, and use the other hand to lift the locking system and slide towards the head
of the stretcher (marked as ). The side rail can then be pushed down (marked as ②).
To raise the side rail :
Grasp the side rail with one hand, check that it is in full lock at the head end, lift it upwards and slide it towards
the foot of the stretcher. Make sure that it is properly locked by trying to slide it back towards the head.
The permitted loads (see shower-trolley characteristics) must be evenly spread over the surface of the top of
the stretcher.

Use only parts and accessories supplied by WINNCARE in order to ensure safety and keep the
product in line with regulations.
4.5.4. Washing
Before washing the patient, make sure that the water will drain off down the drain.
During the wash, you can stop the water from draining with a bung; however, the water level must not go 30mm
over it. When draining, make sure the end of the pipe takes the water away down the drain.
4.6. Precautions for use
Before use, it is indispensable to pay close attention to these instructions. They contain advice on use and
maintenance for your safety.
The shower-trolley is a piece of medical equipment, and thus we inform you that it must not be altered and that
you must ensure traceability. If you use different types of medical equipment, you must carry out a risk analysis
and make a CE declaration.
Improper use of the shower-trolley can lead to the risk of deterioration or accidents for users, and thus would
void the warranty. Improper use means not adhering to the precautions and maintenance instructions, or any
use unconnected to its normal use such as: several people using the trolley at the same time, outdoor use,
use on a slope steeper than 5°etc.
5. MAINTENANCE CONDITIONS
