Warning: not suitable for
use in an ATEX environment
(Directive 94/9/CE)
The information provided by the manufacturer
(hereinafter referred to as information)
must be read and clearly understood by
the user prior to using the Medical Device
(MD hereafter). The information regards the
description of the features, performance,
assembly, disassembly, maintenance,
preservation, disinfection, etc. of the device.
Even though the information offers tips on
use, this information shall not be considered
as a user manual under actual conditions of
use.
WARNINGS AND
LIMITATIONS OF USE:
- this device shall be strictly used by people
who are physically fit, trained (instructed
and taught) to use the device and with
specific experience regarding moving
the patient or, during training activities,
by people under direct supervision of the
trainers/ supervisors who guarantee the
safety thereof,
- do not use the device before fully reading
and understanding this user manual,
- strictly follow the manufacturer’s
information, improper use of the device is
hazardous,
- modifying and/or repairing the device is
strictly forbidden,
- all checks described in chapter 7
must be carried out prior to and
after using the device. In case of any
doubt on the efficiency of the device,
the user must replace it immediately,
- non-compliant use, deformations, falls,
wear, chemical contamination, exposing
textile/plastic components/devices
to temperature below -30°C or above
2
GENERAL INFORMATION
+50°C and metal components/devices to
temperatures exceeding 100°C are some
examples of causes that can reduce, limit
and end the life of the device,
- Prior to any rescue operation, be keen
not to exceed the capacity indicated in
paragraph 3.3,
- in order to reduce risks of exposure to /
transmission of infectious diseases, clean
and disinfect the device as indicated in
chapter 5,
- improper use of the patient immobilisation
systems can jeopardise the safety of the
patient,
- always check the compatibility of the
devices used alongside the device by
consulting the relative manufacturer’s
information,
- use of spare parts or optional components
different from the ones indicated in
paragraph 3.4 can be hazardous,
- do not expose the device to sources of heat
and at contact with chemical substances.
Reduce exposure to direct sunlight as
much as possible. At low temperatures
and in the presence of humidity, formation
of ice could reduce flexibility and increase
cutting and abrasion-related risks on
textile and synthetic devices,
- Report to the manufacturer and the
competent authority of the member
state where the user and / or patient is
established any serious incident occurring
in relation to the MD.
All our devices are tested/ checked piece
by piece in compliance with the procedures
laid down by the Quality System certified
in accordance with the UNI EN ISO
9001 standard. Laboratory tests, testing,
information and standards do not always
reproduce the practical result. Thus, the
results obtained under the actual conditions
of use of the device in the natural environment
may differ, even considerably at times.
The best information lies in the continuous
practical use under the supervision of skilled/
expert/qualified people.

4.2 ASSEMBLY
The “911 ARMOR” stretcher is a MD particularly suitable for recovering and transporting a
patient, which may also be immobilized on the “X-TRIM” spinal boards or the vacuum mattress
“VACUUM.” All decisions regarding movement and immobilization of the patient, as well as
the duration of these operations, the methods to be adopted and use in conjunction with other
devices, must be taken and implemented by expert, trained personnel only.
The ARIES hanging kit (F), makes the “911 ARMOR” stretcher capable of being lifted by
helicopter.
Assemble the two parts of the structure in the following steps:
a) bring the two halves closer together
(fig. 6),
