DANGER!
Risk Of Injury Or Death
Bed accessories designed by other manufacturers have NOT been tested by Invacare. Use of NON-Invacare bed accessories may
result in injury or death.
– Use ONLY Invacare rails, mattresses, bed extenders and other accessories with Invacare bed products.
WARNING!
Risk of Injury or Damage
To avoid injury or damage from instability or incorrect storage:
– Always be aware of the location of the boom tube, base assemblies, and grab bar.
– DO NOT store grab bar on the boom tube or mast.
– DO NOT install or adjust trapeze while bed is occupied.
– Ensure that the snap buttons in the base assemblies fully protrude through the holes in the A-frame. This ensures that the base
assemblies are properly installed and securely locked in position.
– After installation and before use, ensure all attaching hardware is tight and secure at all times.
DANGER!
Risk Of Death, Injury Or Damage
To avoid collapse and resulting injury or damage:
– The Bariatric Trapeze, used in conjunction with a bed, has a safe working load of 650 lbs (294.8 kg). The Bariatric Trapeze is designed
to provide support, increase stability and assist the user when repositioning himself/herself in bed. The Bariatric Trapeze is not
designed, however, to support the total body weight of an individual. Use it for assistance only.
