Scoop EXL Stretcher Series Using the Stretcher
4.4 Adjusting the Stretcher Length
The stretcher length can be adjusted to the patient’s
height by moving the telescoping foot section to one of
four locking positions (Figure 2).
To determine if length adjustment is needed, position
the stretcher beside the patient and align the headrest
area with the patient’s nose. Adjust the foot section to
extend a little beyond the bottom of the patient’s feet.
Adjust the length of the stretcher
before
uncoupling
the halves. This ensures equal adjustment to both
halves.
TO LENGTHEN OR SHORTEN THE STRETCHER
1. Move the lock-pin lever on each side of the frame
to the unlocked position (Figure 3).
Note: When the stretcher is lying face-up on a flat
surface, the locked position is “down” and the unlocked
position is “up” (Figure 3).
2. Pull the foot section outward to the desired length,
stopping near one of the locking positions located
at the holes along the foot-section frame.
3. Return both lock-pin levers to the locked position
(Figure 3).
4. Push or pull the foot section a little until it locks
into place.
5. Make sure both sides are securely locked.
