The Fowler does not
fully
raise
This situation happens when the CPR handle
is used to partly lower the Fowler. The use of
the CPR mechanism for this purpose creates a
situation where the Fowler motor is out of sync
with the actual position of the Fowler. To
correct the situation:
•
Completely lower the Fowler using the
CPR handle or the Fowler down control to
enable the Fowler motor to reset itself.
Refer to the "CPR Emergency Release"
section of the Operations Manual for more
information.
