CAUTION:
Before attempting to turn the RESIDENT® Low Bed over, secure the
head and foot sections to the mid-frame. Failure to do so could result in
damage to equipment or personnel.
CAUTION:
Always lay the bed on a protective sheet or other non-abrasive surface.
Failure to do so could result in damage to the finish.
CAUTION:
The RESIDENT® Low Bed is made in 76" (193 cm) and 80" (203 cm)
lengths. Install the hilow actuator rod tip in the correct support brace
hole in order for the hilow function to operate properly. Failure to install
the hilow actuator in the correct position for the bed size could result in
damage to the unit.
CAUTION:
Do not exceed the RESIDENT® Low Bed maximum safe working load
of 480 lb (218 kg). Equipment damage could result.
CAUTION:
Do not use the RESIDENT® Low Bed without the base bumper in
place. Equipment or facility damage could result.
CAUTION:
Do not use harsh cleaners, solvents, or detergents. Equipment damage
could occur.
CAUTION:
Repeated soaking of the mattress fabric will accelerate wear. Improper
cleaning procedures may void the warranty and result in equipment
damage.
CAUTION:
Use a diluted solution of ammonia, detergent, and bleach to clean the
wood surfaces. If used in high concentrations, many disinfectant
cleaners have a softening effect on any painted or finished surface.
