CRANK HANDLE USAGE
Spring
fi
eld Cribs are equipped with a crank handle for head elevation and it is located on
the
left side
of the foot end. The head crank handle when not in use should be tucked in.
This helps to avoid damage from it hitting or getting caught on other objects when the crib
is being moved.
To use the head crank handle, pull it out from its tucked position and turn clockwise to
elevate the head section of the crib.The head section on the Standard Crib will articulate to
approximately 35 degrees, or
16-17 turns
of the crank handle.
NOTE: The head section of the crib will not articulate higher than the stated 35
degrees. The crank handle will continue to turn after 16-17 revolutions, however it
will become noticeably more di
ffi
cult. Continued cranking will not raise the head of
the crib any further, it will only put stress on the crank handle components and
eventually cause them to break.
