Only facility-authorized maintenance personnel should perform
maintenance procedures on the Resident

personal injury can occur.
1. Remove the mattress from the bed.
2. Set both brakes on the bed by fully depressing the brake pedals (A) located
on both sides of the swivel caster frame assembly at the foot end of the bed
(see figure 4-1 on page 4-5). If the brake design has interconnecting
linkage, both brakes are applied when either pedal is depressed. Give the
bed a solid tug to ensure the brakes are set.
