Troubleshooting
Problem Check the following:
Bed does not operate > Check all cords for fraying, cuts or damage and replace immediately.
> Check that the bed is plugged in, and that the wall outlet is working.
> Check for green power-on light on top of control box, this indicates AC power
to the box. If no light, and wall outlet is working, then fuses may be bad (requires
tools).
> If all or some of the relays in control box “click” when pendant is activated, and
bed does not move, replace control box.
> If no relay “click” can be heard from control box, check that pendant and other
cords are completely plugged into control box.
> If control box is found to be bad, check that no cords have been pinched or
severed. Also check that actuators and all moving parts are not obstructed.
Also check for damaged or dented actuators.
Bed only operates on battery > check that the bed is plugged in, and that the wall outlet is working.

> Check that the cabling on any of the interconnects is not cut or crimped
causing a signal problem.

the load cell housing. There must be some space between the top of
the caster bearing cover and the housing.
