Progressa® Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 9) 41
HEADBOARD
The headboard is attached to the head end of the frame, and it
goes up and down with the frame.
The headboard can be removed for increased access to the
patient’s head.
A caregiver can quickly remove or attach the headboard in a single
step without the use of tools.
To Remove/Install:
• To remove, grasp the headboard and lift straight up.
• To install, position the headboard sockets, indicated by arrows
on the back of the headboard, over the pins on the frame. Then lower the headboard onto the pins.
Push the headboard down until the bottom rests on the frame.
FOOTBOARD
The footboard attaches to the articulating foot section, and it
remains perpendicular to the surface of the foot section at all
times. The footboard protects the patient during transport and
room docking.
A caregiver can quickly remove or attach the footboard in a single
step without the use of tools. When removed the footboard is
designed to stand upright.
Warning—Do not stand or sit on the footboard. Injury or equipment damage could occur.
To Remove/Install:
• To remove, grasp the handles on the footboard and lift straight up.
• To install, insert the pins of the footboard in the articulating frame. Push the footboard down until it
rests on the deck.
Warning—When the footboard is removed from the bed, do not lay the footboard flat on the floor.
Store the footboard in a position or location so that it does not come in contact with biohazards. Failure
to do so could cause injury.
If the footboard does not have a transport shelf installed, the footboard can be set upright on the floor.
If a transport shelf is installed, the footboard can be put against a wall in a position so that it will not fall.
TRANSPORT
Do not walk in front of the bed during transport. Guide the bed from the sides.
Transport Handles
Transport handles are provided at the head end of the bed. The handles provide the caregiver easy-to-
grasp grips for steering and positioning the bed.
