Introduction

Before operating this stretcher, it is important to read and understand all information in this manual. Carefully
read and strictly follow the warnings listed on this page.

WARNING

To avoid damage, remove any equipment that may be in the way before raising or lowering the litter height.
Always apply the caster brakes when a patient is getting on or off the stretcher. Push on the stretcher to en-

sure the brakes are securely locked. Always engage the brakes unless the stretcher is being moved. Injury
could result if the stretcher moves while a patient is getting on or off the stretcher . I f brakes do not hold proper­ly, refer to your stretcher maintenance manual for a brake adjustment procedure.

Be sure the siderail latching mechanism is working properly at all times. If it is not, refer to your stretcher
maintenance manual for ”Siderail Latch Adjustment”.

When lowering the siderail to the collapsed position, keep extremities of patients and staff away from the side­rail spindles or injury could occur.

To avoid injury or damage to the equipment, do not allow the siderail to lower on its own.
Keep fingers/hands clear of area around Fowler release handle and Fowler frame when lowering. Injury could

result if care is not taken when lowering the Fowler.
If pneumatic system appears to be difficult to operate, refer to the stretcher maintenance manual for “Pneu-

matic Fowler Adjustment”
To avoid damage, the weight of the I.V. bags should not exceed 40 pounds.
To avoid damage while transporting the stretcher, verify the I.V. pole is at a low enough height to allow it to

safely pass through door openings and under light fixtures.
