FERNO/MAN/01/18/159/UK 13 Pegasus Trolley
4. Trolley Features
Restraints
Each trolley is equipped with a 4-point harness and two restraint straps, all of which
should be used at all times. The harness is secured to the trolley using locating
posts with hooks, and each strap has loops so that they can be easily attached to the
trolley frame.
Cot Sides
Cot sides should always be used when the patient has been placed on the trolley.
These can be lowered by pulling out the lock pin, the cot sides lock automatically
when raised to the vertical position.
Backrest
The backrest may be locked in any inclined position. Support the backrest with one
hand (to avoid sudden movement). Squeeze the control lever with the other hand.
Raise the backrest to the desired angle and release the lever to lock it in position.
Support the backrest while making adjustments. The backrest also incorporates
superior support for CPR. DO NOT use the backrest to manoeuvre the trolley under
any circumstances. When using the trolley as a seat in a PTS vehicle ensure the
headrest is in its lowest position.
Headrest
The Pegasus is provided with a detachable headrest that affords support particularly
in the patient seated position. The black push button, located at the top of the
backrest, allows the fitting and removal of the headrest, which can be rotated through
half a turn to provide either a cup shape head support or flat support to incorporate a
pillow. A vehicle CEN tested stowage bracket, for the headrest, is also available.
NOTE:- Cot sides are not intended to be used to manoeuvre; lift the
trolley; or as seat, damage may result from this practice.
