Installation and Removal of the Head/Foot Board
INSTALLING THE HEAD/FOOT BOARD:
To install the head/foot board, align the latch on the head/foot board with the latch pins. Then tip the head/foot board
slightly back, place head/foot board on the latch pins and gently push forward. The head/foot board will snap into place.
When latched into place push down the locking mechanism to secure it.
REMOVING THE HEAD/FOOT BOARD:
To remove the head/foot board, pull the locking mechanism
back towards the headboard or footboard. Once both of the
mechanisms are up, they will hold in place. Grab the sides of the
head / foot board with both hands, tilt outwards and pull up.
Siderails
LOWERING THE SIDERAILS:
To lower the siderails, place hand under the plastic latch and pull
forward. Once latch is released, the siderail will slowly lower.
RAISING THE SIDERAILS:
To raise the siderails, place both hands on the rail and gently pull
up. Once rail reaches the top it will lock in place. Ensure that the
siderail is properly locked in place before using the bed or leaving
the patient to avoid patient injury.
NOTE:
Patients should be monitored intermittently to ensure
correct patient positioning on the bed and proper usage of
siderails.
