Unloading The Cot From A Vehicle - Stryker Medical 6082 Rugged MX-PRO R3 Manuel D'utilisation

Unloading the Cot from a Vehicle with Two
Operators
1. Disengage the cot from the cot fastener. (For
more detailed instructions, reference the cot
fastener installation/operation manual − Stryk-
er part number 6370−90−10).
2. Operator 1 − Grasp the cot frame. Pull the cot
out of the patient compartment until the safety
bar engages the safety hook.
WARNING
Failure to use the safety hook can cause injury to
the patient or operator. Install and use the safety
hook as described in this manual.
3. Operator 2 − Grasp the base frame where indi-
cated, lift slightly, and lower the base frame to
its fully extended position while operator 1
squeezes and holds the release handle.
4. Operator 1 − Let go of the release handle and
be sure the undercarriage locks into place.
5. Operator 2 − Disengage the safety bar from the
safety hook by pushing the safety bar release
lever forward.
WARNING
Do not pull or lift on the safety bar when unloading
the cot. Damage to the safety bar could result and
injury to the patient or operator could occur.
6. Remove the cot loading wheels from the ve-
hicle. Place the cot in a rolling position (posi-
tions 2−7 − see page 1−11).
CAUTION
Do not allow the cot undercarriage to drop unassist-
ed (commonly known as a "hot drop") when remov-
ing the cot from the vehicle. Repeated hot dropping
will cause premature wear or damage to the cot.
WARNING
Be sure the undercarriage has engaged before re-
moving the loading wheels from the patient
compartment floor of the vehicle. An unlocked un-
dercarriage will not support the cot and injury to the
patient or operator could result.
