WARNING: These units must only be operated by qualified medical staff.
Operation of these units by any other person is entirely the responsibility of that
person.
WARNING: This manual must be read and fully understood before these units are
applied to patients.
WARNING: Refer to section on indications and contra-indications prior to the
unit being applied to patients.
Application to Patient
These units are designed to provide compression to the Pulse Press range of
Solo and Multi pressure garments. Each unit can be connected to one or two
garments simultaneously. If only one garment is being used then the other
outlet is sealed.
For the Multi pumps the blanking plug must be removed to use a second
garment. The hoses connection is unable to be the wrong way round. The
other end of the air feed hose simply pushes onto the garment.
For the Solo pumps the hose latches into the outlet with a push and twist
action. The other end of the air feed hose pushes into the garment inlet elbow.
Operational Use
1. Connect the mains lead to the IEC power inlet socket. Insert the
mains plug of the lead into a standard 220-240 V mains socket.
2. Fit the air feed hose(s) to the air outlets, as described above. Ensure
that all connections to the pump and garment make a good seal.
3. Place / fit the garment(s) onto the limb(s) requiring treatment.
4. Turn the unit on. A visual mains indicator will illuminate.
5. Select the required pressure using the pressure control.
6. Set up the inflate and deflate times as required.
7. Note the time the treatment starts so that the unit can be switched off
when the desired time has elapsed.
8. DO NOT unzip the garment when the unit is switched on. This may
cause damage to the garment. Always turn off the power before
unzipping the garment.
9. Extra comfort can be obtained by first placing a Pulse Press Garment
Liner on the limb under the pressure garment.
