• Ensure proper hand placement on hand grips. Hands should be clear of red safety bar pivots while loading and

You can raise or lower an unoccupied cot with one operator. If a patient is on the cot, a minimum of two (2) trained

To raise or lower an unoccupied cot:
1. Operator 1 (Foot End) − Grasp the cot frame at the foot end and press either the extend (+) button on the control

To raise or lower the cot with a patient:
1. Operator 1 (Foot End) − Grasp the cot frame at the foot end and press either the extend (+) button on the control
switch to raise the litter or the retract (–) button on the control switch to lower the litter to the desired position.
2. Operator 2 (Head End) − Maintain a firm grip on the outer rail until the cot is securely in the desired position.
Note: If the extend (+) button on the control switch remains activated after reaching the set load height, the motor will
remain halted until the operator releases the button. After the button is released, press the extend (+) button again to
"jog" the cot height up further.
