2.2.12. Front wheels
The front wheels, which are the ones resting on the
stretcher holder, can be adjusted to three different
positions, depending on the height of the guide.
Remove the screws securing the front wheels support and mount them again in the
holes indicated below.
2.2.13. Mounting the stretcher on the ambulance stretcher holder
Kartsana recommends using the Kartsana rails to secure the stretcher to the
ambulance, since these have been specially designed for that purpose.
Guide the stretcher to the ambulance platform and mount its front wheels (wheels with
a diameter of 100 mm), on the stretcher holder, and if the platform has a Kartsana rail,
place the front wheels outside the rails. Then activate the front wheels control to fold
the front leg (blue control) and insert the stretcher into the stretcher holder up to the
rear wheels. At this point, activate the rear wheel control (orange) to fold it.
After activating the orange control, part of the weight of the rear end of the
stretcher must be supported, and so it will be necessary to hold it firmly with
both hands.
