CAUTION
• Do not modify this stretcher. Modifying the unit can cause unpredictable operation resulting in injury to the patient
or operator. Modifying the unit will also void its warranty.
• To avoid damage, remove any equipment that may be in the way before raising or lowering the litter height.
• To avoid injury or damage to the equipment, do not allow the siderail to lower on its own.
• When the transfer board is being used to transfer a patient, the support post must be in the stored (down) position.
Damage to the support post will occur if it is pushed up against a stretcher, table, etc.
• To avoid damage, the weight of the I.V. bags should not exceed 40 pounds.
• To avoid damage while transporting the stretcher, verify that the I.V. pole is at a low enough height to allow it to
safely pass through door openings and under light fixtures.
• If the stretcher is equipped with the optional foot end I.V. pole, the I.V. pole must be in the raised position when the
foot extension/defibrillator tray is installed. If the I.V. pole is not raised, the foot extension will not function properly
and injury could occur.
• To avoid damage, do not put items weighing more than 30 pounds on the defibrillator tray.
• To avoid damage, do not put items weighing more than 30 pounds on the serving tray.
• Do not raise the unit (hydraulics on base) with a patient lift under the stretcher.
• Do not use the hood for stepping.
NOTE
• Clean hood storage area regularly.
• The bottom of the brake pads should be cleaned regularly to prevent wax or floor remnant buildup.
