Summary of Safety Precautions
Carefully read and strictly follow the warnings and cautions listed on this page. Service only by qualified personnel.
WARNING
• Always apply the brakes when a patient is getting on or off the stretcher. Push on the stretcher to ensure that 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.
• Patients should be discouraged from sitting directly on the ends of the stretcher. Excessive weight could cause
the litter surface to tip up, possibly causing patient injury.
• Leave the stretcher height in the lowest position when the patient is left unattended. Leaving the stretcher height
in a raised position could increase the chance of patient falls and injury.
• Make sure that the brakes are completely released before attempting to move the unit. Attempting to move the unit
with the brakes engaged could result in injury to the user and/or patient.
• After raising the siderails, pull firmly on the siderail to ensure that it is securely locked into the fully raised position.
Siderails are not intended to serve as a patient restraint device to keep patients from exiting the unit. Siderails are
intended to keep a patient from inadvertently rolling off the unit. It is the responsibility of the attending medical
personnel to determine the degree of restraint necessary to ensure that a patient will remain in place. Failure to
utilize the siderails properly could result in patient injury.
• When lowering the siderail to the collapsed position, keep extremities of patients and staff away from the siderail
spindles or injury could occur.
• During patient transfer, keep patient and operator extremities away from collapsed siderails or injury could occur.
• Operation of the pneumatic fowler is a manual procedure. Use caution when raising the fowler while a patient is
on the stretcher. Use proper lifting techniques and get additional assistance, if necessary. Failure to use proper
lifting techniques could cause injury to the operator.
• Keep hands/fingers clear of the area around the fowler release handle and the fowler frame when lowering the
fowler. Injury could result if care is not taken when lowering the fowler.
• The weight of the patient’s head is resting on the head piece and must be supported by the operator when the
latches are released and the head piece is being positioned. Failure to adequately support the head piece while
positioning the head could result in patient injury.
• Do not reach between the side of the head extension and the articulating head piece to pull the release handle.
Finger injury could result.
• To avoid possible pinch points when adjusting the head piece, keep your fingers away from the jointed areas.
• When using the transfer board to transfer a patient from one patient support platform (for example, bed, stretcher,
gurney, operating table) to another, always lock the brakes on both patient support platforms. Make sure that the
transfer board is placed securely on the surface of the patient support platforms. The patient support platforms
and surfaces must be at the same height before the patient is transferred.
• If the stretcher is equipped with the optional foot end push handles, use caution while the foot extension/defibrillator
tray is installed to avoid pinching your fingers.
• To avoid the risk of injury to the patient or user or damage to the I.V. pole while transporting the stretcher, make
sure that the I.V. caddy is securely tightened on the I.V. pole.
• Disinfect the mattress between patients. Failure to do so could result in cross-contamination and infection.
• Some disinfectants may cause damage to the product if used improperly. If the products described below are used
to disinfect the mattress, measures must be taken to ensure the entire surface is wiped with a damp cloth soaked
in clean water and thoroughly dried following disinfection. The cover can be damaged when exposed to such
disinfectants beyond the manufacturers’ recommendations. Failure to follow these directions when using these
types of disinfectants may void this product warranty.
• The mattress cover must be completely dry before storage or adding linens. Failure to remove excess disinfectant
could cause degradation of the cover material.

• Do not use the serving tray as a push/pull device because equipment damage could occur.
• To avoid damage, the safe working load of the two-stage permanently attached I.V. pole is 40 lb.
• To avoid damage while transporting the stretcher, verify that the I.V. pole is at a low enough height to allow it to
safely pass through door openings and under light fixtures.
• Do not use the I.V. pole as a push/pull device because equipment damage could occur.
• To avoid damage, the weight of the I.V. bags should not exceed 12 lb. while the weight of any one item attached to
each stage of the three-stage permanently attached I.V. pole should not exceed 9.3 lb.
• The maximum PSI level for the drape support/oxygen tubing is 20 PSI (1.38 Bars/140 KPA).
• To avoid damage, do not put items weighing more than 40 lbs. in the upright oxygen bottle holder.
• Do not use the upright oxygen bottle holder as a push/pull device because equipment damage could occur.
• Before returning the unit to service after cleaning, ensure that the unit is functioning properly by verifying that all
labels are intact, raise/lower the stretcher height, brake/steer pedal locks properly in both positions, latch/unlatch
the siderails, raise/lower the fowler and gatch, and check all components for proper lubrication.
• Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if used improperly. If the
products suggested above are used to clean Stryker patient handling equipment, measures must be taken to
ensure that the stretcher is wiped with a damp cloth soaked in clean water and thoroughly dried following cleaning.
Failure to properly rinse and dry the stretcher will leave a corrosive residue on the surface of the stretcher, possibly
causing premature corrosion of critical components. Failure to follow the above directions when using these types
of cleaners may void this product’s warranty.
• Frequent or prolonged exposure to higher concentration disinfectant solutions may prematurely age the cover
fabric.
• The use of accelerated hydrogen peroxides or quaternaries containing glycol ethers may damage the cover.
NOTE
• Clean the base hood storage area regularly.
• The bottom of the brake pads should be cleaned regularly to prevent wax or floor remnant buildup.
