Bed length
adjustment
WARNING
Install a suitable foam mattress extension (squab) at the head
end when the bed is extended.
Always adjust the bed frame and mattress platform to the same
length and make sure both are latched securely in position.
Level the mattress platform before adjusting the bed length.
Take care not to pinch your fingers when lifting the catch bar.
The length of the bed is adjustable to three set positions.
These are typically used as follows:
1
Short, for manoeuvring the bed in confined spaces
2
Standard length, for normal use
3
Extended, to accommodate very tall patients
