COT RETAINING POST ADJUSTMENT
English
Tools Required:
• T30 Torx Driver
CAUTION
The cot retaining post is shipped preconfigured for an X-frame cot. If the cot fastener has been configured for an
H-frame cot, you must adjust the cot retaining post to accommodate the cot fastener.
Procedure:
1.
Using a T30 Torx driver, remove the two socket head cap screws (A) that hold the brackets (B) to the base frame
(C) (Figure 53). Save both screws for reinstallation.
2.
Turn the bottom bracket 180˚.
3.
Using a T30 Torx driver, reinstall the two socket head cap screws that were removed in step 1.
4.
Verify proper operation of the unit before returning it to service.
To determine if your cot is an X-frame or H-frame cot, look for an arrow or groove on the bottom bracket of the cot
retaining post.
• The cot retaining post is set for an X-frame cot if the arrow on the bottom bracket of the retaining post points
toward the head end of the cot or if the groove in the bottom bracket is located on the inside of the patient left
side of the base tube.
• The cot retaining post is set for an H-frame cot if the arrow on the bottom bracket of the retaining post points
toward the foot end of the cot or if the groove in the bottom bracket is located on the outside of the patient left
side of the base tube.
