Advanta™ 2 Bed User Manual (157722 REV 2)
WARNING:
If the bed is stopped on a ramp, or a patient is left unattended, set the brake to avoid unwanted
bed movement. Failure to do so can cause personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Failure to significantly reduce the speed of travel when you transport freestanding equipment
such as portable IV poles along with the bed can cause injury or equipment damage.
CAUTION:
The powered transport system is intended for indoor use only. Outdoor use may cause
temporary or permanent damage to the powered drive mechanism and/or drive belt.
To Prepare the Bed for Transport
1. Raise all four siderails to the up and locked position.
2. Put the bed in the low-low position.
3. Adjust the head position to make sure the view is unobstructed
from the head end of the bed.
4. Secure all equipment being transported with the bed such as
monitors, oxygen tanks, and IV poles.
5. Make sure the transport handles are up and locked in position.
To Activate
1. Unplug the AC power cord from its power source and stow.
2. Set the brake/steer control to steer.
NOTE:
Unplugging the bed and putting it in steer mode will automatically deploy the
drive wheel, but not power the powered drive system.
3. Grip one or both of the transport handles located at the head end of the
bed.
4. Depress at least one of the enable switches on the inside of the grips of the transport handles.
•
Depressing an enable switch engages the drive wheel on the bed so it can move when pressure
is applied to the handles.
•
Depressing the enable switch will not cause the bed to start moving if there is no pressure
applied to the handles.
5. Push the transport handles forward to start forward movement or pull them toward you to start
reverse movement.
•
Pressure sensors located in the transport handles sense the applied pressure and activate the
motor to propel the bed in the direction of the applied pressure.
•
The amount of pressure applied to the handles will regulate the speed of the bed. Increasing
the forward applied pressure will move the bed forward faster. Maximum forward speed is
between 2.5 mph and 4.0 mph (4.0 km/h to 6.4 km/h) on level flooring. Increasing the reverse
applied pressure, will move the bed in reverse faster. Maximum reverse speed is between
1.0 mph and 2.5 mph (1.6 km/h to 4.0 km/h) on level flooring.
