VEHICLE CONFIGURATION

According to federal regulations (reference KKK-A-1822), the bumper height of the vehicle shall be installed equidistant
5 cm (2 inches) from the vehicle floor to the ground level, which is defined as the vehicle deck height. The bumper
±
step shall have a minimum depth of 13 cm (5 inches) and a maximum depth of 25 cm (10 inches). If the bumper depth
is greater than 18 cm (7 inches), then the bumper must be able to fold. Installation of the safety hook into any vehicle
compliant with this federal specification provides adequate clearance for the cot base to lower to its fully extended
position. The cot is compatible with all vehicle deck heights (see specifications for maximum load height) as long as
the vehicle meets the federal specifications that are outlined in KKK-A-1822.
