XT Series Extrication Devices
3.3.5 Assembling the auxiliary
handles
The red carrying handles are removable and independent,
so they can be moved as required. For example, they can be
connected to the middle handles to make them longer and allow
extrication even with larger patients. As an alternative, they
can be directly secured to the board using any available hole.
To attach the red handles, follow the xing procedure with
cow hitch (Figures 11A, 11B and 11C).

device into service
