Applying or releasing the brakes
WARNING
•
Always keep feet clear from the area above the base cover or below the base cover when lowering the product or
when applying the brakes or releasing the brakes.
•
Always apply the brakes when a patient is getting in the product or out of the product to avoid instability.
•
Always apply the brakes when the patient is unattended.
CAUTION
•
Always apply the brake to prevent unintended movement.
•
Do not apply the brake pedal to stop a moving product.
The brake pedals are located on both the left and right
sides of the product.
To apply the brakes, fully depress the pedal toward the
head end. The brake pedal locks all four caster wheel
brakes and holds the product in place.
To release the brakes, depress the pedal toward the foot
end until the pedal is in the neutral position. This releases
all four caster wheels and allows you to freely move the
product forward, backward, and from side to side.
