Important Information

1.3 Safety Information

Safety information and measures to protect the user and patients
from hazards that can result from use of the operating table.
During an operation, changing the patient's position by moving
the operating table (to the zero position, Trendelenburg) may be
necessary to enable life-saving measures in critical situations.

WARNING
Hazard to the patient!
Functional failure of the operating table cannot be completely
excluded given state-of-the-art technology available on the
market today. Should this rare event occur, motor-driven
operating table functions will no longer be available during the
operation.

If the electrical operating table functions fail, the patient can only
be moved with suitable aids (e. g., by placing a pad underneath
the patient) or by manually moving the patient from the operating
table.

1.3.1 General Information

• Risk of material damage to electrical equipment through
condensation! Do not immediately turn on the operating
table. When moving the operating table from a cold to
a warm environment or vice versa, condensation can occur
on the inside of the operating tabletop. Before turning on the
operating table, store the table in a room at the prescribed
ambient temperature and humidity (See chapter
15.1 “Conditions for Operation, Storage and Transport” on
page 66) (for at least 12 hours) and allow it to warm up/cool
down.
• Check that all electrical and mechanical functions/parts of the
operating table, including accessories, are undamaged and in
good working order before using them.
Defective or damaged products may not be used.
• Hazard to the patient due to improper attachment! Check
that the section segments and accessories are securely fastened
to the operating table before each use. Spontaneous movement
may occur, and released elements may slip out. Loosen controls
for adjustment purposes only. Clamp them down immediately
thereafter. Check that all fastening elements are seated properly
and tightly.
• Risk of crushing by moving parts! Familiarise yourself with
its operating functions before using the product.
• Risk of injury due to overhanging parts.
• Pay attention to the pictograms on the product. All pictograms
(adhesive labels) on the product must be complete and legible.
Replace damaged or loose adhesive labels.

6 Instruction manual MARS 2.07 – 1 476 911 – 02/2011

 Important Information

• Read the relevant instruction manuals for the proper and safe
use of additional equipment.
• The knobs are loosened by turning counter-clockwise and
tightened by turning clockwise, like a standard screw.

1.3.2 Electricity
• Get a qualified electrician to check the electrical safety
of the operating table and the power supply every year.
We recommend an annual general safety check by Technical
Customer Service at TRUMPF Medizin Systeme GmbH +
Co. KG.
• The anti-static properties of the operating tabletop comply with
legal requirements if the standard and Prophylactic plus (T) pads
supplied are used and properly secured. The pads are electrically
conductive and guarantee AP safety when the regulations are
heeded.
• Always keep rechargeable batteries ready for service
(i. e., charged) so they may be immediately used in the
event of a loss of power.
• Do not crush or roll over power and equipotential bonding
conductors. Do not use any damaged cables. Disconnect
cables before moving equipment.
If you have any concern about the safety of the power cables
and equipotential bonding conductors, work with the internal
(rechargeable) power supply only until you have replaced the
cable in question.
• Only the use of the operating table when an equipotential
bonding conductor is connected to an electrically conductive
floor.
• Connection points for the potential equalisation cable on the
operating table comply with DIN EN 60601-1 (VDE 0750-1).

Important Information

1.3.3 High-frequency (HF) Surgery

Note DIN EN 60601 and the instruction manual from
the HF surgical device manufacturer.
TRUMPF operating tables are electrically conductive according
to the currently valid DIN EN 60601 regulations. When high-
frequency devices (defibrillators, defibrillator monitors, etc.) are
used, the patient runs the risk of electrical shocks or burns if no
safety precautions are taken.
• Risk of burns to patient! Position patient on the operating
table so he or she is isolated from metal parts (operating table,
accessories) and conductive pads or tubes.
• Make sure patient does not come into contact with damp
towels or pads. Only use dry materials.
• The use of HF surgical devices can lead to interruptions
of electric motor-driven functions during use.

1.3.4 Pads
• Use of the operating table with Prophylactic (M) pads in
potentially explosive areas is generally not permitted.
• The pads and cover retain the patient´s body heat, thereby
preventing the body temperature from falling due to heat
diffusion.
• The pad is removable. Use the appropriate pads only
(manufactured by TRUMPF Medizin Systeme GmbH +
Co. KG).
Do not lay the patient on the operating table without
a pad. The edges of the pad are flush with the operating
table when operating table components are fitted properly.
• Lift the patient into the desired position on the operating table
and do not pull the patient over the pads. After each change of
position, lift the patient´s appropriate body parts. Any wrinkles
or shearing forces that have developed will be eliminated.
• Do not place any sharp-edged objects on the pad or stick them
into the pad. Do not attach any adhesive foil.
• Always use only ONE pad version for the patient positioning
area (the tabletop plus the section segments). Note the different
properties of the pad versions (See chapter 4 “Pads” on
page 18).

 Important Information

1.3.5 Transport/Repositioning
• Occupational safety for personnel: Given their heavy weight,
when lifting or carrying the section segments and accessories,
or when manually moving the operating table with or without
a patient, take extra care not to strain your back. Work with
an additional person if necessary. Never couple or uncouple
multiple section segments or heavy, unwieldy accessories at the
same time. Hold the component securely and do not drop it.
• Secure the patient before adjusting the operating table and
support the patient actively during adjustments.
• Pay close attention to all electrically supported functions and
movements near the operating table to rule out any risks to
the patient or material damage to equipment, the operating
tabletop or furnishings.
• Perform all manual patient repositioning in a controlled and
responsible manner. Watch the movements of electrically
powered operating table adjustments carefully until the end
position has been reached.
• Pay particular attention to the operating table when lowering,
since the tabletop may collide with operating accessories lying
below it, or it may even contact the floor if it is set in an extreme
position. In some circumstances, there is a possible risk of
crushing people as well.
• When the zero position is approached on the operating table,
inclined patient positions may become steeper than they were
before the movement commenced. Select the ZERO POSITION
function only if there is no possibility of collisions. Closely watch
the table as it moves from the zero position to the end position.
• Risk of tipping over! Before moving the operating table
(with the drive mode):
- Lower the operating tabletop until the pictogram on the
column covers is obscured.
- Return any tilted position to a horizontal position.
- Shut or disassemble any accessories.
• Danger of collision! Be especially careful when transporting
the operating table. Be careful to avoid collisions with nearby
persons or furniture to prevent damage to the table.
• For accessories with removable pads, do not carry the
accessories by the pad. The accessory will slip out of the
pad and fall onto the floor.

 Operation

11 Operation
DANGER
Risk of death due to electric shock!
Check potential connection. Use the operating table only with
a connected potential equalisation cable. The operating table
must possess a potential connection in the operating theatre.

WARNING
Risk of explosion in the AP area!
Use of Prophylactic (M) pads on the operating table in the AP area
is not permitted in conjunction with flammable anaesthetic gases,
cleansers or disinfectants.
Use only antistatic pads on the operating table on antistatic
flooring. Prevent electrostatic charges.

CAUTION
Hazard to the patient! Risk of collisions and jamming!
Watch all motorised movements of the operating table carefully
until the end position is reached. If the operating table is fully
equipped, not all of the coupled parts are detected by the
electronics. Collisions can thus not be ruled out entirely and
must be prevented by aborting the function.
Monitor all accessories attached in the column area during
adjustments.

The seat section and back section extension form a single unit and
can be adjusted by the control units. They have coupling points for
additional components. The system's sensors report the important
settings of the tabletop, as well as its position. These data are
analyzed.
Before use, turn the operating table on and brake (lock into place).
Secure the patient before adjusting the operating table and provide
active support during adjustments. The head position of the patient
must correspond with the display on the column keypad. Set the
head position at the column keypad.
To adjust the operating table, the corresponding function keys
on the control unit have to be pressed until the desired position
is reached. The function stops when the key(s) is released. When
lowering the tabletop segment from a position above the seat
section level, the segment stops automatically in the zero position
(signal). To lower below the zero position, briefly release and then
press the function key(s) again.

Instruction manual MARS 2.07 – 1 476 911 – 02/2011 47

Operation

11.1 Selecting the Head Position

NOTE

The head position of the patient must match the display on the
column keypad.
The operating tabletop can be set up in the “inverse” direction for
certain patient positions where the patient needs to be lying at the
other end of the operating tabletop (with head at the foot end).
The column keypad displays no longer match the patient's head
position. Some operating table functions (e. g., Trendelenburg,
i3 i4 tilting) are then reversed. In such cases, you must manually switch
the head position using the HEAD POSITION LEFT [i3] key to
reflect the actual head position. The appropriate display will then
be illuminated. After you have changed the head position, table
movements will be executed correctly. Switching the operating
table off and back on again, always restores the NORMAL position
setting and the HEAD POSITION RIGHT [i4] display is illuminated.

48 Instruction manual MARS 2.07 – 1 476 911 – 02/2011

 Operation

11.2 Zero Position

Approaching the zero position means that the electrically adjusted
joints on the operating table automatically return to their defined
starting positions (a neutral position), one after the other:
- Any adjusted motorised tabletop joints are returned to the
horizontal position.
- A Trendelenburg or Anti-Trendelenburg position is returned
to the horizontal.
- A tilted position is returned to the horizontal.
Adjustment

CAUTION
Hazard to the patient!
Monitor the patient´s position. When approaching the zero
position, inclined patient positions may become steeper than
they were before the movement commenced!

1. Adjust the spreadable leg sections so that they are not on

top of one another. Position accessories to prevent collisions
when approaching the zero position.
2. Approach the zero position by pressing the following key(s):

In the emergency mode, all adjustments are executed at half-speed.

An acoustic signal is emitted while moving the operating table.

CAUTION
Hazard to the patient! Danger of collision.
The limits switches are not monitored. Do not put the operating
table in any extreme positions.

If the operating table is reacting atypically, e. g., due to a sensor

failure, certain adjustments cannot be executed or are limited to
i1 + i20 such an extent that that the emergency mode can also be manually
activated in an emergency. Press the green ON [i1] and the
EMERGENCY OPERATION [i20] buttons on the column keypad
simultaneously for approx. 10 seconds. You will hear various
acoustic signals. When you hear one long beep, the operating
table is now in the emergency mode. The red EMERGENCY
OPERATION display [i20] will continually blink.
NOTE

Activate the operating table emergency mode only when an

error is present. Turning the operating table off and back on
again restores it to the normal mode of operation in cases
where emergency operation was previously manually activated.

14 Care, Cleaning and Disinfection

CAUTION
Risk of personal injury!
Prior to performing any maintenance work or cleaning, disconnect
the operating table from the external power supply. Ensure that no
motorised movements are possible.

CAUTION
Risk of material damage due to incorrect product
maintenance.
- The operating table is not machine-washable.
- Do not use a high-pressure cleaner. With high-pressure water
jets, fluids can penetrate the interior through gaps or openings
and damage the product (e. g. corrosion).
- Incorrect cleaning agents damage the surfaces.
Do not use any cleaners or disinfectants that are abrasive
or contain halogens or peracetic acid in caring for the
product in general. In addition, do not use any
cleaners or disinfectants containing alcohol or
(flammable) solvents on plastic parts and pads.

Cleaning agents and disinfectants have to meet all nationally

applicable regulations for the medical field and/or be in the list of
the DGHM1)/VAH2). Observe the hospital's hygiene regulations.
Clean soiled products immediately. Cleaning/disinfection is limited
to regularly wiping down (not submersing) equipment with suitable
substances.

CAUTION
Risk of personal injury! *1
The product is no longer AP safe if pad surfaces are
damaged. Do not use the product in conjunction with
highly flammable anaesthetic gases.
Use of incorrect cleaning agents will remove the anti-static
properties of the pads in accordance with DIN EN 60601-1
(IEC 60601-1), and the product will no longer be AP safe.
Use the specified cleaning agents and disinfectants only.

 Care, Cleaning and Disinfection

To clean stainless steel and plastic components, use a pH-neutral

or mildly alkaline all-purpose cleaner containing tensides as the
active cleaning ingredient. If heavily soiled, use a concentrated
cleaner and then rinse with clear water. Position the operating
table in the uppermost lift position for cleaning and wipe with
a moist cloth. In this position, the metal panels and the bellows of
the operating table column can be pulled apart and are easy to
clean. Remove the pad to clean the pad plate and the underside
of the pad.
Alcohol- or aldehyde-based surface disinfectants may be used to
disinfect stainless steel components. Use only aldehyde-based
surface disinfectants for plastic parts and pads. Alcohol-based
solutions can damage these surfaces. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions when using a disinfectant.
After cleaning and disinfecting equipment, use a dry cloth to wipe
up any excess liquid, such as drops, that may have collected on
the underside of the operating tabletop's standard rail. Attach the
cleaned and disinfected pad to the product using dry fleece straps
only.
