Introduction to DRIVE Assist
This section of the document explains what
DRIVE
assist means, and how to use it.
The stretcher incorporates a motorised 5
th
wheel, the ‘
DRIVE
wheel’. The assistance the
DRIVE
wheel provides is to help reduce the pushing and pulling forces required to start
and stop the stretcher, and the force required in motion; it is therefore referred to as
‘
DRIVE
assist’.
The pushing handles are attached to sensors that detect the push/pull action on them,
and are termed ‘
DRIVE
handles’.
DRIVE
assist is automatically activated by placing both
hands on the
DRIVE
handles, and pushing or pulling the handles forwards or backwards
to apply a modest amount of start-up motion to the stretcher; see Section 22, ‘Using
DRIVE
Assist’ for a more detailed explanation.
On page 35, the ‘Quick Start Guide for Using DRIVE Assist’, is intended to help you use
DRIVE
assist in a few simple steps. However, it is advisable that these instructions are
read in their entirety before using the equipment.
WARNING: Do not use a stretcher bed push, or other mechanical means for
propulsion of the stretcher, on a stretcher fitted with
DRIVE
assist.

Switching On DRIVE Assist
The stretcher is switched on by depressing the ON/OFF Button (item 1, Fig. 13); at start
up a short beep sounds.
NOTE:
Before switching on
DRIVE
, ensure the
DRIVE
handles are free from external
forces, and nothing is hanging from, wrapped around, or clamped on to, the
DRIVE
handles, as this will prevent successful calibration.
