GS side rail adjustment
Split side rails
In standby position, the side rails are located next to the sleeping
surface and thus prevent the mattress from slipping. (Fig. 1)
1.
The side rails are raised by tilting them upwards. In this
middle position, they prevent the patient falling out of bed.
When raised at the head end, they also provide stable
standing and mobility assistance for the patient. (Fig. 2)
2. The upright side rail is released by means of two spring
catches in the side rail bars below the height adjustment
handrail and positioned at its maximum height. Perform tel-
escopic adjustments upwards and downwards using both
hands simultaneously to prevent jamming. (Fig. 3)
Do not
force the movement!
3. To lower the telescoping side rail height extension, proceed
the same way as to raise it.
4. To swivel the side rails back to the standby position, press
the indicated latches on the lower side rail bar inwards si-
multaneously and initiate the tilting motion. (Fig. 4)
Caution! When raising the side rails and side rail
height extensions, ensure and check that the latch-
es engage securely. Always use both hands to move
this element!
Caution! Activate the low position on the IMPULSE
KL hospital bed with undercarriage Edition 400 only
with retracted side rails! (Fig. 1)
