When you press the retract (-) button, the cot will enter the high speed retract mode when the cot wheels are not supporting
the weight of the cot and patient.
The high-speed retract mode expedites loading of the cot into a vehicle. The undercarriage retracts toward the highest
position once the weight of the cot and patient is no longer supported by the wheels. Press the retract (-) button to actuate
the control switch.

The cot is fully compatible with the Model 6390 P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D system if you ordered the cot with the P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D option
or upgraded your cot with the compatibility kit.

• Always use P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D with the 6085/6086 P P e e r r f f o o r r m m a a n n c c e e - - P P R R O O XT, 6500/6506 P P o o w w e e r r - - P P R R O O XT, and 6510/6516
P P o o w w e e r r - - P P R R O O IT cots with the P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D option only. In certain situations, you can use P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D as a standard
antler for most X-frame cots, but a rail clamp assembly is required for all cots without the P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D option.
• Always make sure that you use a P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D date of manufacture cot with the Stryker Model 6390 P P o o w w e e r r - - L L O O A A D D
system to avoid the risk of injury.

Always load an occupied cot with a minimum of two trained operators. Two operators must be present when a cot is
occupied. Operators must be able to lift the total weight of the patient, cot, and any items on the cot.
W W A A R R N N I I N N G G
• Always support the load of the patient, cot, and accessories after the weight is off of the ground.
• Two operators must be present when a cot is occupied.
• Always follow proper hand placement on hand grips. Keep all hands clear of the red safety bar pivots when you load or
unload the cot or change cot height position.
• Do not load the cot into a vehicle with the head section retracted when using a cot fastener. The cot may tip or not
connect with the cot fastener.
Stryker recommends that both operators are at the foot end to reduce the load on each operator. One or two operators can
lift from the foot end of the cot. The higher an operator must lift the cot, the more difficult it may be to hold the weight. The
operator must be able to lift the cot high enough for the cot legs to extend when the cot is unloaded. An operator may need
help if they are too short or if the patient is too heavy to lift when unloading the cot. If you are a shorter operator, you may
need to raise your arms higher to allow the cot legs to extend.
N N o o t t e e - - You can load an unoccupied cot into a vehicle with one operator.
To load the cot into a vehicle:
1. Extend and lock the retractable head section.
2. Place the cot in a loading position. A loading position is any position where the load wheels meet the vehicle floor height.
3. Lift the vehicle bumper, if equipped, to the raised position.
