Inspection

In principle we recommend one inspection every year, and a minimum of one before usage
is resumed. All of the following checks must be performed and documented by authorized
persons:
Check the frame parts for plastic deformation, cracks and impaired functioning (lying
surface, undercarriage, backrest, foot-end, erection boom, receptacle for the boom,
wheels).
Visually check for damage to the paintwork (danger of corrosion)
Check the operation of the braking wheels (free running, safety, locking etc.)
Check the solidity and seating of all screws.
Verify the amount of grease on the metal joints of movable parts.
Visually check all housings for damage, screws must be securely fixed, seals and
gaskets should not exhibit visible damage.
Visually check all plastic parts for cracks and brittle spots
Visual inspection of the power connection (EPR or similar)
Condition of the power lead (especially: squashing, abrasion, cuts, visible insulation
or inner conductors, visible metallic veins, kinks, bulges, color changes of the outer
covering, brittle places)
Check the internal cabling of the power supply (especially: crushing, abrasion, cuts,
visible insulation of the inner conductor, visible metallic veins, kinks, lumpiness, color
changes of the outer sleeve, brittle spots)
Humidity protection of the electric system, at least IPX4 (see Type label).
Device for suspending the power cable during transportation.
The power cable and other electric leads must be laid down securely in such a way
that shearing, squashing, and other mechanical stresses are improbable.
Measure the resistance of the protective braid (Ohm) according to VDE 0751-1.
Measure the residual diversion current (A) according to VDE 0751-1
Measure the insulation resistance (MOhm) according to VDE 0751-1
Check the functioning of the side railings (locking, distances according to EN 1970:
2000, also when loaded, deformation and wear through loading)
Check the operation of the drives (over the full adjustment range of the motors 
noises, speed, free running, etc., final switching (e.g. current limiting, main switch), if
necessary: Measure the performance, first with no load, and then with the nominal
load ("SWL") to investigate the wear and tear of the motors by comparing the values
of the electric current with the values when the bed was delivered.
Check the condition of the mattress (not when use of the bed is resumed)
Completeness of the delivery condition, instruction manual available?
Electrical measurements may only be carried out by persons at least trained on the nursing
bed and instructed by an electrician about the instruments and procedures to be used. Only
an electrician can release the nursing bed for use after making the measurements and
performing the servicing.
The service must only be signed off in the maintenance plan if a minimum of all the above-
mentioned aspects have been checked.
