Progressa® Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 9) 75
TRANSPORT SHELF
To help prevent injury and/or equipment damage, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Do not exceed the 45 lb (20.4 kg) safe working load of the transport shelf. To do so
could cause the shelf to fail.
• Warning—The foot section must be flat for you to use the transport shelf. Otherwise, the
equipment could fall.
• Warning—Do not stand or sit on the transport shelf.
• Warning—Failure to use the straps to hold equipment on the shelf could permit the
equipment to fall.
• Warning—After use, make sure the shelf is locked into the stowed position. Failure to do so
could cause the shelf to accidentally contact the floor when you use the bed articulation
controls.
• 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.
If the footboard does not have a transport shelf installed, the footboard can 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.
The transport shelf can be used to hold small equipment during patient transport and as a writing
surface.
To Use:
1. Make sure the foot section is flat
2. Lift the shelf up and over the footboard toward the sleep
surface until the shelf stops in the horizontal position.
To Stow:
1. Remove all equipment from the shelf, and connect the hook
and loop straps
2. Lift the shelf up and over the footboard away from the sleep
surface until the shelf is flat against the footboard and is
locked in position.
