STRETCHER CLEANING

These instructions are intended to provide recommended cleaning methods for the Stryker Model 1037 Trauma
Stretcher. Follow hospital protocol for cleaning procedures and frequency.

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.
CAUTION
Before returning the unit to service after cleaning, ensure that the unit is functioning properly by verifying that all labels
are intact, raise/lower the stretcher height, brake/steer pedal locks properly in both positions, latch/unlatch the siderails,
raise/lower the fowler and gatch, 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 that 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.
