STANDARD MATTRESS RETAINER INSTALLATION
USING 35" OR 42" WIDTH MATTRESS RETAINER
The Matrix Series Bed mattress retainer was designed to span the width of the sleeping surface.
One retainer is shipped with the Matrix 4000 and will t on the Foot End as shown (Note: An optional retainer can be
ordered separately for the head end of the Matrix 4000 Series beds).
Two retainers, one for each end, are shipped with the Matrix 5000 / 6000.
1. Determine if you need to position your bed in an 80" or 76" conguration (80" length bed = outside holes; 76" length
bed = inside holes).
2. Carefully squeeze the Mattress Retainer ends inward, toward the center of the retainer, and insert the ends into the
proper holes. Lay the Mattress Retainer down so that the elbows rest on the decks and the long cross rod faces away
from the bed as shown.
IMPORTANT: Ensure all three adjustable parts are properly positioned for 76" or 80" congurations
(see pages 11, 12, 13, 14 and 16).
!
Be sure to use a mattress that is properly sized to t
the sleep deck, which will remain centered on the
deck relative to State and Federal Guidelines. Use of
an improperly tted mattress could result in injury or
death.
!
Use a properly sized mattress in order to minimize
the gap between the side of the mattress and assist
devices. This gap must be small enough to prevent
resident / patient from getting their head or neck
caught in this location.
