General Maintenance including Gas Strut
It is recommended that the following checks and adjustments are carried out at minimum of twice a
year and more frequently if the couch is in constant use.
1. The framework of the couch is of steel construction and coated with an epoxy paint finish.
This is resistant to most cleaning substances.
2. The major pivot points need to be lubricated sparingly with oil. Care should be taken to keep
oil away from the upholstery.
3. All nuts should be checked and tightened where necessary Care should be taken not to over
tighten the nuts on the pivot points as this may cause them to bind.
4. Air tubes should be checked to ensure that they are not pinched.
Electric cables and mains plug should be inspected for damage and replaced where
necessary. In addition, electrical safety checks for earth continuity (class I equipment only)
and earth leakage checks should also be carried out.
The correct value fuse of 5 amps and ASTA approved to BS1362 MUST be used.
6. The upholstered top is manufactured using fire retardant vinyl. This tends to go brittle if oil
or grease (including body oils) are left on it. The upholstery should be cleaned with warm
soapy water after use. The use of detergents is not recommended although a suitable
sterilisation fluid is acceptable. Use of a couch cover or towel will help prolong the life of
the upholstery.
7. Woodscrews, used to secure the upholstery, should be checked and tightened or replaced
where necessary.
8. The hinge pins on the head and foot sections should be checked to ensure that they have not
moved within the hinge tubes. Ensure Circlip is located fully in groove in pin. If the Circlip
is not located correctly push firmly into groove to secure pin.
9. Gas strut controls should be checked for a small amount of clearance between the operating
flap and the release pin, throughout the range of movement. Should clearance be inadequate,
or the top sinks whilst in use, the following adjustments should be made; firmly grasp the
body of the strut and rotate in an anti-clockwise direction. Check for clearance and repeat as
necessary.
Should the gas strut fail to operate, refer to the above adjustment but rotate in a clockwise
direction.
