Product description
The Stryker Model 6506 Power-PROXT cot is a powered ambulance cot that consists of a platform mounted on a wheeled X-frame designed to support and transport a maximum weight of 700 lb (318 kg) in pre-hospital and hospital environments.
The device is collapsible for use in emergency vehicles and has an adjustable load height feature to allow the device to be set to different ambulance deck heights for proper body mechanics during loading and unloading. The NiCd battery­powered hydraulic lift system allows operators to raise and lower the cot using the powered controls, while duplicate foot­end controls on the upper and lower lift bars accommodate different operator positions or sizes. The cot is equipped with a manual back-up release handle to allow the operation of cot functions in the event of power loss. The device is equipped with a retractable head section for 360-degree mobility in any height position, side rails, patient securement straps, an adjustable pneumatic backrest, and various optional accessories that assist with the transport of a patient. Maximum patient comfort is attainable with the three different litter positions of shock, flat leg, and optional knee gatch positioning.
The SMRTpower system consists of a SMRT charger and a SMRT Pak. The SMRT Pak powers the hydraulic lift system of the Stryker powered ambulance cots.
Indications for use
The Stryker Power-PRO XT is a powered wheeled stretcher, which is intended to support and transport the entire body of a traumatized, ambulatory, or non-ambulatory human patient (includes infants and adults).
The battery-powered hydraulic lift system is intended to help reduce the effort required by the operator to raise and lower the cot. The device is designed to support patients in a supine (horizontal) or sitting position and facilitate the transportation of associated medical equipment (such as oxygen bottles, monitors, or pumps) in emergency or transport vehicles. This ambulance cot is intended to be used in pre-hospital and hospital environments, and in emergency and non­emergency applications. It is rated to a maximum capacity of 700 lb (318 kg) (sum of the patient, mattress, and accessory weight) and the intended operators of the device are trained professionals including emergency medical service and medical care center personnel, as well as medical first responders.

Selecting the vehicle safety hook
The vehicle safety hook is a device that ships with the cot. The cot safety bar and vehicle safety hook keep the cot from being accidentally removed from the vehicle and provide increased operator assurance and confidence when loading and unloading.
Note: These instructions are intended for cots with antler style cot fastener systems. For crash-rated cot fasteners, see the appropriate Operations Manual for installation instructions. Crash-rated cot fasteners are shipped and installed with their own vehicle safety hook, thus no additional hook is needed.
The vehicle safety hook was designed for compatibility and proper operation when loading and unloading the cot from a vehicle that is compliant with Federal Regulation KKK-A-1822. Stryker offers three different types of vehicle safety hooks that are ordered and shipped with your cot. These vehicle safety hook types meet the needs of various emergency vehicle configurations, specifically the length and location of the floor structure support that is located in the rear of the vehicle.
To select which vehicle safety hook is appropriate for your vehicle configuration:
Consider the location of the floor structure support where there is adequate room to mount the vehicle safety hook.
Mount the vehicle safety hook into the back of the vehicle. Provide bumper clearance to allow the operators to load and unload the cot from the vehicle.
Note the differences in vehicle design. Each vehicle safety hook provides a different mounting location option to maintain the appropriate distance between the face of the vehicle safety hook and the edge of the door sill.
Due to the differences in vehicle dimensions and the floor structure support locations, each vehicle safety hook allows for a different mounting location. Select the correct position for your vehicle safety hook installation.

Operation
Setting cot load height with jog function
The adjustable cot load height with jog function allows you to preset the height of the load wheels to meet the ambulance deck height up to 36 in. The jog function assists operators when loading on an incline by jogging past the preset load height. You can set the cot load height from 26 in. to 36 in. (66 cm to 91 cm) as measured from the ground to the bottom of the load wheel.
To set the cot load height:
1. Locate the sensor housing on the patient right side of the cot.
2. Using a T27 Torx driver, remove the sensor housing cover by loosening the two screws (one on each end).
3. Adjust the left height sensor only inside the sensor housing: (Figure 12 on page 27): a. Move the sensor toward the head end to increase the set load height or move the sensor toward the foot end to
decrease the set load height.
b. Press the retract (-) button to lower the cot to its lowest position, then press the extend (+) button to raise the
cot to its set load height position.
c. Measure the cot height from the bottom of the load wheels to the floor.
Note: Add an additional 1/2 in. (1,3 cm) to your deck height measurement to allow for variations in patient weight or with other equipment that may be added to the cot.
d. Repeat steps 3a and 3b until you reach the desired cot load height.
4. Secure the height sensor cables. All cables should lie flat inside the housing between the sensors.
5. Using a T27 Torx driver, reinstall the two screws (removed in step 2) to replace the sensor housing cover.
Checking the battery power level
Use the cot battery LED indictor to check the SMRT Pak power level. A charged SMRT Pak, in working condition, provides up to 25 calls with a 250 pound patient (actual results may vary). The 24 VDC Power-PRO system and the
SMRT Pak is rated for 2.4 amp-hours of electric energy.
WARNING
Do not remove the battery when the cot is active.
CAUTION
Always charge the battery before you place the product into service. An uncharged or depleted battery may cause poor product performance.

amber.
The LED flashes amber when you need to charge or replace the battery Note: The cot battery LED indicator does not have to flash amber before you remove and replace the SMRT Pak,
however, this is considered to be a best practice. You can remove and recharge the SMRT Pak at any time.
The LED is a solid amber to indicate a battery error.
Notes
Only use Stryker approved batteries.
If equipped, the powered cot fastener automatically charges the SMRT Pak battery. Automatic charging occurs when you lock the cot into the powered cot fastener (no cable or connectors required). The cot battery LED indicator flashes green for a moment to signify that it is charging.
Automatic charging will only occur with SMRT Pak batteries.
Checking the hour meter and error display
The hour meter indicates the amount of time (HHH.H hours) that the hydraulics were in use. The error display provides error code information for troubleshooting.
Use the hour meter (A) (Figure 13 on page 28) to determine the frequency of preventive maintenance. Use the error display (A) for troubleshooting. The error display overrides the hour meter display when an error occurs.

Operation
Raising or lowering the cot manually with the manual override
In the event of loss of electrical function, you can use the cot manual override. This allows manual operation of the product until the restoration of the electrical, powered functions. Use the red manual back-up release handle to raise or lower the cot.
The manual back-up release handle is located is along the patient left side of the lower lift bar at the foot end of the cot.
To raise or lower the cot with the manual back-up release handle:
1. Both operators: Lift the cot during the raise or lower operation to support the weight of the cot at each end.
2. Operator 1 (foot end): a. Pull the manual back-up release handle toward the lift bar. b. While pulling the manual back-up release handle, raise or lower the cot to the desired position. c. Release the handle to lock the cot into position
Notes
Both operators must lift the cot weight off of the wheels to use the manual extend or retract while a patient is on the cot.
Activation of the manual back-up release handle may cause the cot to lower at a slow rate if less than 50 lb (23 kg) are on the cot.
Hydraulic fluid will become more viscous when the cot is used for extended periods in cold temperatures. When using the manual back-up release function to extend the base, while unloading in cold weather conditions, hold the manual back-up release handle for approximately one second after the cot wheels touch the ground to minimize sagging of the litter as you remove the cot from the vehicle patient compartment.
Expediting load with the high speed retract mode
When you press the retract (-) button, the cot will enter the high speed retract mode when the cot wheels are not supporting the weight of the cot and patient.
The high-speed retract mode expedites loading of the cot into a vehicle. The undercarriage retracts toward the highest position once the weight of the cot and patient is no longer supported by the wheels. Press the retract (-) button to actuate the control switch.
Loading or unloading a cot with the Power-LOAD option
The cot is fully compatible with the Model 6390 Power-LOAD system if you ordered the cot with the Power-LOAD option or upgraded your cot with the compatibility kit.
WARNING
Always use Power-LOAD with the 6085/6086 Performance-PRO XT, 6500/6506 Power-PRO XT, and 6510/6516 Power-PRO IT cots with the Power-LOAD option only. In certain situations, you can use Power-LOAD as a standard
antler for most X-frame cots, but a rail clamp assembly is required for all cots without the Power-LO AD option.
Always make sure that you use a Power-LOAD date of manufacture cot with the Stryker Model 6390 Power-LOAD system to avoid the risk of injury.

Loading a cot into a vehicle with an antler style cot fastener
Always load an occupied cot with a minimum of two trained operators. Two operators must be present when a cot is occupied. Operators must be able to lift the total weight of the patient, cot, and any items on the cot.
WARNING
Always support the load of the patient, cot, and accessories after the weight is off of the ground.
Two operators must be present when a cot is occupied.
Always follow proper hand placement on hand grips. Keep all hands clear of the red safety bar pivots when you load or unload the cot or change cot height position.
Do not load the cot into a vehicle with the head section retracted when using a cot fastener. The cot may tip or not connect with the cot fastener.
Stryker recommends that both operators are at the foot end to reduce the load on each operator. One or two operators can lift from the foot end of the cot. The higher an operator must lift the cot, the more difficult it may be to hold the weight. The operator must be able to lift the cot high enough for the cot legs to extend when the cot is unloaded. An operator may need help if they are too short or if the patient is too heavy to lift when unloading the cot. If you are a shorter operator, you may need to raise your arms higher to allow the cot legs to extend.
Note: You can load an unoccupied cot into a vehicle with one operator.
To load the cot into a vehicle:
1. Extend and lock the retractable head section.
2. Place the cot in a loading position. A loading position is any position where the load wheels meet the vehicle floor height.
3. Lift the vehicle bumper, if equipped, to the raised position.
4. Roll the cot to the open door of the vehicle patient compartment.
5. Push the cot forward until the load wheels are on the vehicle patient compartment floor and the cot safety bar passes the vehicle safety hook.
6. Pull the cot back until the cot safety bar connects to the vehicle safety hook for maximum clearance to lift the base.
7. Make sure that the cot safety bar connects with the vehicle safety hook.
8. Load the cot. Note: Always use the powered method to load an unoccupied cot with one operator. Do not use the manual method
to load an unoccupied cot with one operator.
Powered method - using the cot control switches (Raising, lowering, or releasing the cot with power on page 31):
