STRETCHER CLEANING

These instructions are intended to provide recommended cleaning methods for Model 1079 stretchers.

RECOMMENDED CLEANING METHOD

Note: Follow the cleaning solution manufacturer's dilution recommendations exactly.
• Remove the mattress prior to washing the unit; do not wash the mattress with the stretcher.
• Wipe the unit with cleaning solution and water per manufacturer's recommended dilution.
• Dry thoroughly. Do not replace the mattress on the stretcher until the unit is completely dry.
• Before returning the unit to service, verify that all labels are intact and that the brake/steer pedal locks properly in
both positions and check all components for proper lubrication.
DO NOT STEAM CLEAN, PRESSURE WASH, HOSE OFF OR ULTRASONICALLY CLEAN THE STRETCHER.
Using these methods of cleaning are not recommended and may void this product's warranty.

RECOMMENDED CLEANERS

Suggested cleaners for stretcher surfaces:
Quaternary Cleaners (active ingredient - ammonium chloride).
Phenolic Cleaners (active ingredient - o-phenylphenol).
Chlorinated Bleach Solution (5.25% - less than 1 part bleach to 100 parts water).
Avoid over saturation and ensure the product does not stay wet longer than the chemical manufacturer's guidelines
for proper disinfecting.
CAUTION
Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if used improperly. If the products
suggested above are used to clean Stryker patient handling equipment, measures must be taken to ensure the stretcher
is wiped with a damp cloth soaked in clean water and thoroughly dried following cleaning. Failure to properly rinse and
dry the stretcher will leave a corrosive residue on the surface of the stretcher, possibly causing premature corrosion of
critical components. Failure to follow the above directions when using these types of cleaners may void this product's
warranty.
Stretchers must have maintenance performed after a minimum of every fifth washing. See the maintenance manual
for specific lubrication instructions.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the display enclosure for the optional scale system. Do not allow cleaning
solutions or other fluids to pool on the display unit. Wipe dry all surfaces after spills or cleaning.
