ADJUSTING TRENDELENBURG/REVERSE TRENDELENBURG POSITIONS - SIDE CONTROL
Litter height must first be raised in order to achieve a Trendelenburg or reverse Trendelenburg position.
CAUTION
•
To avoid damage, remove any equipment that may be in the way before raising or lowering the litter height.
•
Do not raise the unit (hydraulics on base) with a patient lift under the stretcher.
For Trendelenburg positioning (head down)
, depress the side of pedal (B) closest to the head end (see Figure 2 on
page 1-12
).
For reverse Trendelenburg positioning (foot down)
, depress the side of pedal (B) closest to the foot end (see
Figure 2 on
page 1-12
).
Note:
The higher the litter is before pedal (B) is activated, the greater the Trendelenburg or reverse Trendelenburg
angle will be. (Maximum Trendelenburg angle is +18°. Maximum reverse Trendelenburg angle is -18°.)
