Titan T Basket stretcher and Tirol Kit
Application of the straps
1.
Four straps are provided with the stretcher at the
time of purchase. The straps are designed to be
integrated with what is normally used to secure the
patient in recovery situations at a high angle. They
have been designed and made to be suitably resistant
and to complete your system of tubular fabric straps,
ropes or other. These straps are only to secure the
patient to the stretcher and must not be used for
lifting or for other purposes.
2.
Attach and tighten the straps
3.
The strap with (three-pin) buckle has a termination
loop for attachment to the stretcher and a free end
for tightening it. The strap with (two-pin) buckle
has a termination loop like the previous one and a
tab sewed onto the buckle, to be used for loosening
it (fig. 1).
4.
Insert the three-pin buckle through the opening of
the one with two pins (fig. 2).
5.
Make sure you have pulled the free end of the strap
completely through the opening.
6.
Slightly pull the free end of the strap to settle the
three-pin buckle evenly on the two-pin buckle (Fig.
3).
7.
Tighten the strap by pulling on the free end of the
strap.
8.
Loosen and open the straps
9.
To loosen the straps, pull the red detachment tab
towards the buckle (fig. 6). Continue to pull until
the strap is as loose as required. To open the straps,
loosen them as described above and then tilt the
three-pin buckle and pull it out from the two-pin
buckle, passing it through the opening (fig. 3).
10.
Attach the straps to the stretcher
11.
The upper edge of the Durathene mesh leaves some
points of the lower tube of the stretcher uncovered
for easily attaching the straps (fig. 7).
12.
Choose the most appropriate point for attaching the
straps, in relation to the patient to be transported
and your fixing system. Attach the straps as follows:
13.
Open the straps as described in step (8).
14.
Starting from the outside of the stretcher, pass the
loop section of the strap in between the mesh and
the tube of the stretcher at the required point of
attachment (Fig. 4).
15.
Pass the buckle through the loop (Fig. 5). Pull the
loop to tighten it around the tube of the stretcher.
16.
Attach the other strap in symmetry with the first,
following the same procedure as above.
