Power Loss during Transport
AFTER TRANSPORT
• The amount of pressure applied to the handles will regulate the speed of the bed. Increasing
the forward applied pressure will move the bed forward faster. Increasing the reverse applied
pressure will move the bed in reverse faster.
• A gradual decrease of pressure on the push handles will slow the bed.
5. Transport the patient per facility protocol.
A mechanical override is located on the foot end of the IntelliDrive®
Transport System. If the battery fails or there is a loss of the motor
power during a transport, pull the mechanical override towards the
foot end.
In the event that the system loses power during a transport, do as
follows:
1. Set the brake.
2. Get additional persons to help manually transport the bed.
3. Put the bed in Neutral to raise the drive wheel off the floor.
or
Pull the mechanical override towards the foot end of the bed to permit manual movement of the
bed with the power drive wheel lowered.
4. Continue with the transport.
1. When the bed is in the correct position, set the brake. On a bed
with the powered drive system, the drive wheel will raise off
the ground and the drive wheel indicator on the Transport Pod
will turn off.
2. Plug in the power cord, and as applicable, the auxiliary outlet power cord and the communication
cable.
3. Adjust the IV poles to the correct working height.
4. Optional: To store the push handles, pull them upward to
unlock them, and then swing them inward (toward the center
of the bed) into the stored position.
