TRENDELENBURG/REVERSE TRENDELENBURG POSITIONING
WARNING
To avoid patient falls and injury, always use proper patient restraints when positioning the litter in Trendelen-
burg or reverse Trendelenburg.
For Trendelenburg positioning (head down), turn the hand crank (A), located at the head end of the

For reverse Trendelenburg positioning (foot down), turn the hand crank (A), located at the head end
of the unit, clockwise.
NOTE
To provide additional clearance at the head end, the hand crank can be turned and positioned independently
of the Trendelenburg function. Pull out on the crank arm and rotate it to the desired position.
The handle (B) on the end of the hand crank can be folded to provide additional clearance at the head end
of the platform. Pull it out and fold it down against the crank arm.
CAUTION
To avoid damage, move any equipment that may hinder motion before lowering or positioning the platform.
If the unit is positioned in reverse Trendelenburg (foot end down) with the foot section lowered, the foot section
may contact the floor. To avoid damaging the unit, raise the litter or raise the foot section to the flat position
before positioning the unit in reverse Trendelenburg.
