Pre-Installation Information
Please Read Carefully Before Starting
WARNING: Verify that rails have been installed in accordance with Amico rail installation instructions. Rail failure with
devices mounted can cause serious injury and equipment damage.
WARNING: It is dangerous to use the arm for weights outside of the rated range. Structural failure and/or serious
injury could result.
WARNING: Never position the arm above a patient.
WARNING: The AHM monitor arm contains a strong gas spring which is used to counterbalance the weight of the
mounted device. The arm housing should never be disassembled by non-Amico personnel. Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in serious injury. The mounted device should be within the “Duty Weight Range” for best
performance and reliability.
WARNING: It shall be the responsibility of the hospital, its consultants and/or contractors to determine if the wall is
adequate to safely mount the specic instrument. This includes the selection of appropriate fasteners and the proper
installation, regardless of what is supplied with your AHM arm. See Rail Instructions for specic wall channel guideline
information.
WARNING: Verify the weight of the device to be mounted. (AHM monitor arms are rated at 30 lbs (13.5 kg) of load,
this rating applies to all AHM with or without extensions). (please refer to weight rating label, located either on the
top or bottom of the arm assembly, depending on the model). Check that the device to be mounted does not exceed
the weight rating. Serious injury and damage to the arm can occur as a result of overloading arm assembly. The above
weight rating applies to all units with extensions.
For installation on non-Amico rails, ensure the rail is safe for the application.
