Steer / Brake System
To steer the stretcher
Press one of the corner GREEN pedals on the base down fully to activate steering.
Press the opposite RED pedal back to the horizontal (neutral) position to disengage steering.
There are variety of ways stretcher steering is controlled while moving. These may include the option of
a corner castor locked into a straight position or as standard a 5th (center) steer wheel pressured onto
the floor.
It is recommended that a stretcher with corner steering is always pushed from the opposite end to
which the steer castor is positioned, however the end from which a stretcher is pushed from is subject
to an organisations internal policy and risk assessment.
To move the stretcher sideways, always ensure the pedals are in the horizontal (neutral) position.
To brake when parked
Press one of the corner RED pedals down fully to activate all four castor brakes.
Press the opposite GREEN pedal back to the horizontal (neutral) position to disengage the brakes.
ALWAYS APPLY THE BRAKES WHEN THE STRETCHER IS PARKED.
