Installing the vehicle safety hook

Before installing the vehicle safety hook, the certified mechanic should plan for the placement of the vehicle safety
hook in the rear of the vehicle patient compartment.
WARNING
• Failure to install the vehicle safety hook may cause injury to the patient or operator.
• Always have a certified mechanic, familiar with ambulance vehicle construction, install the safety hook.
• Always make sure that the safety bar connects with the vehicle safety hook before you remove the cot from the
vehicle patient compartment to avoid the risk of injury.
Hardware required (not supplied):
• (2) Grade 5, minimum 1/4"-20 socket head cap screws * for the short vehicle safety hook or long vehicle safety
hook
• (2) Grade 5, minimum 1/4"-20 flat socket head cap screws * for the J vehicle safety hook
• (2) Flat washers
• (2) Lock washers
• (2) 1/4"-20 nuts
Note: The length of the socket head cap screws depend on the thickness of the vehicle floor. Use screws that are long
enough to go completely through the vehicle patient compartment floor, washer, and nut, with at least two full threads in
the nut.
