10. Push the transport handles forward to start forward movement or pull them toward you to start
reverse movement. There may be a momentary delay before the bed moves.
• Pressure sensors located in the transport handles sense the applied pressure, activate the
motor, and propel the bed in the direction of applied pressure.
• The amount of applied pressure to the handles will regulate the speed of the bed.
– Increasing the forward applied pressure will move the bed forward faster. Maximum
forward speed is between 2.5 and 3.5 mph on level flooring.
– Increasing the reverse applied pressure will move the bed in reverse faster. Maximum
reverse speed is between 1.0 and 2.0 mph on level flooring.
11. Decreasing pressure on the transport handles will slow the bed down.
12. Releasing the enable switch(es) on the transport handles will cause the bed to stop.

the drive box on the bottom of the bed) to permit forward and reverse bed
movement with a deployed, unpowered, IntelliDrive® Transport System.
WARNING:
To help prevent injury and/or equipment

avoid unwanted bed movement.

System when using freestanding patient attached equipment or traveling through doorways.
