ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the mattress from the bed.
2. Place the bed in the flat position and position
one crossbrace between the second and third
springs on the head-end section of the bed
(Figure 1).
3. Ensure the bed hooks are on the bottom side of
the crossbrace and not the top
4. Secure one bed hook to the bedspring angle
iron and compress crossbrace until it is short
enough to attach to the opposite side of the
bed (Figure 2). Ensure the crossbrace attaches
to the bedspring angle iron (Figure 3).
5. Rotate the barrel so the long end faces the
ground.
6. Inspect the crossbraces to ensure proper and
secure attachment.
7. Position another crossbrace between the second
and third springs on the foot-end section of the
bed. Then repeat steps 3-6 on to ensure proper
installation.
8. Once crossbraces are securely attached, place
mattress on the bed frame.
9. Insert the rail into the slide tubes. Pull the
plunger knob to adjust the rail height.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, use a mattress thick
enough and wide enough so that the gap between the top of the mattress and
the bottom of the side rails and the gap between the side of the mattress and
the side rails is small enough to prevent a patient from getting his or her head
or neck between the mattress and the side rail. Assure that articulating the
bed, head section or foot section does not create any hazardous gaps. Failure
to do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, only use side rails
that can be positioned so that the gap between the headboard or foot board
and the side rails is small enough to prevent a patient from getting his or
her head or neck between the mattress and the side rail or large enough that
the trunk and hips can easily pass through it. Assure that articulating the
bed, head section or foot section does not create any hazardous gaps. Failure
to do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, only use side rails
in which any gaps between the rail body members are small enough to prevent
a patient from getting his or her head or neck inside the rail body. Failure to
do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. When using multiple side rails on one or both
sides of the bed, only use side rails that can be positioned so that the gap
between the side rails is large enough that the trunk and hips can easily
pass through it. Assure that articulating the bed head section or foot section
does not create any hazardous gaps.
