You should always check the maximum load of the bed and ensure that the
combined weight of the client, the VENDLET system and any other equipment
on the bed never exceeds this limit.
H
A distance of 2.5 – 4 cm is required between the mattress and the VENDLET on both
sides of the mattress, meaning that the difference between the T and M measures
must be between 5 cm and 8 cm. Likewise, it is important that the mattress guides
are suitable for the mattress and will hold the mattress in place.
In order to meet the side rail requirements, the upper edge of the bars must be
mounted 22 cm above the mattress surface, meaning that the H measure must be
between 22 cm and 23 cm.
Maximum loads
The max. user weight for VENDLET V5S and VENDLET V5S Speed Adjust is 200 kg.
The max. user weight for VENDLET V5S+ and VENDLET V5S+ Speed Adjust is 400 kg.
Since the VENDLET systems are always mounted on beds, it is important to consider
the whole solution.
Unscrew the lower bolt on both mounting
brackets.
Swing the mounting plate upwards
Place the side on the bed with mounting
brackets resting on the bed frame
Attaching a side
The cables for the actuators on each side have different color-coding. Mount the side
with green O-ring on the bed at the client’s right side. Mount the side with yellow O-
ring on the bed at the clients left side.
Place the side on the bed with mounting
brackets resting on the bed frame
Mounting
Remember to account for the distance between VENDLET and the mattress. If the
distance is too small (<2.5 cm), spacers must be used - see the “Adjustment of width
of mounting brackets”.
Swing the mounting plate back into place
Screw the removed bolt loosely at both ends
