Preparing the Bair Hugger Model 875 Patient
Adjustable Warming Unit for Use
Before you begin using the patient adjustable warming unit, make
sure that it is safely placed on a flat, hard surface such as a table, or
securely mounted on a wall, IV pole, suction wall mount adapter, or
bedrail.
Caution: Do not place the patient adjustable warming unit on a
soft uneven surface, such as a bed, or a visibly wet surface as the
air intake may become blocked and cause the patient adjustable
warming unit to overheat, compromising the patient adjustable
warming unit's performance.
A wall-mount bracket is shipped with every patient adjustable
warming unit; the brackets for mounting the patient adjustable
warming unit to an IV pole, bedrail, or a suction wall mount
adapter are available separately. Please contact your local sales
representative or call 3M at 1-800-228-3957 (USA only) for more
information about ordering mounting brackets and adapter.
The following instructions for mounting the patient adjustable
warming unit assume that the brackets have already been attached to
the wall or to the patient adjustable warming unit.
Placing the Patient Adjustable Warming Unit on the Wall-
mount Bracket
1. Snap the patient adjustable warming unit into position by sliding
the clip on the back of the patient adjustable warming unit into
the groove of the wall-mount bracket. The assembly will click
when the clip is fully seated in the wall-mount bracket.
2. Lift the patient adjustable warming unit straight up to remove it
from the wall-mount bracket.
Note: It may be necessary to gently strike the case bottom in an
upward fashion with the palm of your hand to release the clip

Mounting the Patient Adjustable Warming Unit on an IV Pole

the patient adjustable warming unit to the floor must be less than 44"
(112 cm) and the IV pole wheelbase diameter must be at least 28"
(71 cm) to prevent tipping.
1. To prevent tipping, clamp the Model 875 patient adjustable
