PRELIMINARY
1-4-3 Mechanical Safety
WHILE THE SOFTWARE INSTALL PROCEDURE IS DESIGNED TO PRESERVE DATA,
YOU SHOULD SAVE ANY PATIENT DATA, IMAGES, SYSTEM SETUPS TO A DVD OR
HARDCOPY BEFORE DOING A SOFTWARE UPGRADE.
PRIOR TO ELEVATING SCANNER, VERIFY THAT THE MONITOR IS LOCKED IN ITS
LOWEST POSITION. VERIFY THAT THE FRONT BRAKE IS LOCKED AND THE
SCANNER IS UNABLE TO SWIVEL. VERIFY THAT THE REAR BRAKES ARE IN THE
LOCKED POSITION.
WHENEVER THE UNIT IS TO BE MOVED ALONG ANY INCLINE, USE EXTREME
CAUTION. MAKE SURE THAT THE VENUE GO™ SCANNER AND ALL PERIPHERALS
ARE SECURELY MOUNTED IN PLACE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO MOVE IT.
ULTRASOUND PROBES ARE HIGHLY SENSITIVE MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS THAT CAN
EASILY BE DAMAGED BY IMPROPER HANDLING. USE CARE WHEN HANDLING AND
PROTECT FROM DAMAGE WHEN NOT IN USE. DO NOT USE A DAMAGED OR
DEFECTIVE PROBE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS CAN RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY AND EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
NEVER USE A PROBE THAT HAS FALLEN TO THE FLOOR. EVEN IF IT LOOKS OK, IT
MAY BE DAMAGED.
ULTRASOUND SYSTEM WEIGHTS CAN BE SIGNIFICANT, PLUS THE WEIGHT OF INSTALLED
PERIPHERALS, WHEN READY FOR USE. CARE MUST BE USED WHEN MOVING IT OR
REPLACING ITS PARTS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PRECAUTIONS LISTED BELOW COULD RESULT IN INJURY,
UNCONTROLLED MOTION AND COSTLY DAMAGE.
• USE THE HANDLE TO MOVE THE ULTRASOUND SYSTEM.
• BE SURE THE PATHWAY IS CLEAR. LIMIT MOVEMENT TO A SLOW CAREFUL WALK.
• DO NOT LET THE ULTRASOUND SYSTEM STRIKE WALLS OR DOOR FRAME.
• USE TWO PEOPLE WHEN MOVING ON INCLINES OR LIFTING MORE THAN 16 KG (35 LBS).
THE SYSTEM SHOULD NOT BE MOVED WITH THE OPERATING PANEL EXTENDED.
POSITION THE OPERATING PANEL IN ITS CENTERED AND LOCKED POSITION.
LOWER THE OPERATING PANEL AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE BEFORE MOVING THE
SYSTEM. See Figure 5-14 on page 5-32 illustrating system in Transportation Mode.
REMEMBER: IF THE FRONT CASTER SWIVEL LOCK IS ENGAGED FOR
TRANSPORTATION, PRESSING THE RELEASE PEDAL ONCE DISENGAGES THE
SWIVEL LOCK. YOU MUST DEPRESS THE RELEASE PEDAL A SECOND TIME TO
ENGAGE THE BRAKE.
BEFORE YOU MOVE OR TRANSPORT THE SYSTEM, MAKE SURE TO LOCK THE LCD MONITOR
ARM FIRMLY AND FLIP DOWN THE MONITOR TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM.
See Figure 5-14 on page 5-32 illustrating system in Transportation Mode.
ALWAYS LOCK THE TOP CONSOLE (OPERATOR PANEL) IN ITS PARKING (LOCKED)
POSITION BEFORE MOVING THE SCANNER AROUND.
TO AVOID INJURY WHEN YOU MOVE THE LCD MONITOR AND THE MONITOR ARM, DO NOT PUT
YOUR FINGER, HAND, OR OBJECT ON THE JOINT OF THE MONITOR OR THE MONITOR ARM.
