OPERATING THE BASE CONTROLS - SIDE CONTROL

To operate the base controls, see Figure 2 to locate which pedals are used for what operation.
CAUTION
• To avoid damage, remove any equipment that may be in the way before raising or lowering the litter height.
• Do not raise the unit (hydraulics on base) with a patient lift under the stretcher.
To raise the litter height, pump pedal (A) repeatedly until the desired height is achieved.
To lower both ends of the litter together, depress the center of pedal (B).
To lower only the head end of the litter, depress the side of pedal (B) closest to the head end.
To lower only the foot end of the litter, depress the side of pedal (B) closest to the foot end.
WARNING
• 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.
