Point-of-Care® Brake and Steer System
The Point-of-Care® Brake and Steer System pedal control is located above the casters at the head end of the system.
Use the steer mode to move the TotalCare® Bariatric Bed. Engaging the Brake feature keeps the TotalCare® Bariatric
Bed from moving. The neutral position allows the system to be moved sideways in a room or small enclosed area.
To Activate:
NOTE:
The TotalCare® Bariatric Bed should be pushed from the head end of the bed using the transport handles.
When the brake and steer pedal is placed in steer, the front casters are not locked into steer mode. All four casters on
the bed are put into the neutral position. This allows the bed to pivot on the IntelliDrive™ Transport System drive wheel.
Pivoting on the drive wheel allows for tighter turns, and enhanced ease of steering.
WARNING:
Always set the brake when the bed and/or patient is not being transported. Failure to set the brake can cause
personal injury or equipment damage from the bed moving under its own power.
• Brakes - Step down on the orange Brake
Pedal. The Brake not Set indicator goes out,
indicating the four casters are locked. Push
and pull on the system to make sure that
the brake function is fully engaged.
• To Steer - Step down on the green Steer
Pedal. The Brake not Set indicator comes on.
• Neutral Position - Move the Brake/Steer
pedal to the level position. The Brake not Set
indicator comes on. The system can now be
moved in any direction.
If the bed is unplugged, the IntelliDrive™
Transport System will deploy.
