3.  Is the rail clamp properly tightened to secure the rail?

or crushed rail tubing.)

 

○

Adjusting the Rail Clamp

1.  Load a compatible Ferno cot into the fastening 

system.

2.  Verify the antler hooks properly engage the loading-

wheel forks of the cot.

3.  Verify the rail jaws properly grasp the center of 

the fastener post. If not, adjust the rail clamp so it 

secures the cot but does not cover the red line on the 

adjustment-limit label (Figure 5):

 

○

Adjust the height of the rail clamp on the mounting 

bracket if needed.

 

○

Adjust the rail clamp side-to-side within the 

adjustment range indicated by the adjustment-limit 

label (Figure 5). The rail clamp must not cross the 

red line on the label.

4.  Secure the rail to the bracket. Use a torque wrench 

and tighten the rail clamp screws in an X-pattern 

to provide even pressure. Set the torque wrench as 

follows:

 

○

180 inch-pounds 

OR

 

○

15 foot-pounds 

OR

 

○

20.337 Newton-meters

Note:

Do not apply oil or lubricant to the screws prior to 

tightening.

 

WARNING

Improper adjustment can cause injury. Stay within the 

range between the jaw and the adjustment limit label.

Important

The adjustment limit label ensures the cot will be held near 

the reinforcements offered by the bracket. Do not exceed the 

adjustment range between the jaw and the label.
