FOLD DOWN SIDERAIL LATCH ADJUSTMENT

Tools Required:
• 1/8" Hex Allen Wrench
WARNING
The siderail latches are preset at the factory, and do not normally need adjustment . If adjustment must be done, it is
important to follow the procedure below . If adjustment is not done properly, injury to the patient or user could result .
Procedure:
1 . Using a 1/8" hex Allen wrench, adjust the hex Allen screw located on the latch assembly opposite the latch . Turning
the screw clockwise will decrease the amount of "play" in the latching mechanism . Turning counterclockwise will
increase the amount .
Note: The amount of "play" in the siderail, when in full up engaged position, should be approximately 1/8" to 3/16"
inches .
CAUTION
Too much "play" when the siderail is in the full up engaged position will give the siderail the appearance of being
unstable and could also cause premature wearing of the latch system .
Too little "play" will obstruct the latch and keep it from engaging completely in the full up position, which may result in
damage to the latch and/or injury to the patient or user .
