4.1 Height Adjustment

The Doherty Plinth has an electrical height adjustment system to aid patient care
and handling. The system is controlled via a touch button handset.

Before operating the handset always inform the patient of the action about to
take place.

•  To raise the Plinth press the left button on the handset indicated by the arrow 

pointing upwards. Keep the button depressed until the desired height is reached.

•  To lower the Plinth press the right button on the handset indicated by the arrow 

pointing downwards. Keep the button depressed until the desired height is 
reached.

•  The Plinth automatically stops when the maximum or minimum height of the 

couch has been reached.

4. OPERATING THE PLINTH

The Plinth has an integral handset holder on both sides 
of the seat section so that the handset can be stored 
when not in use (as seen in Fig 4).

WARNING!

•  Ensure there are no obstructions that could impede the couch movement or 

could endanger the patient/carer.

•  Never store anything under the couch
