8.7 Storing the Transport Stands
The bed comes complete with integral transport stands and storage brackets. To store
these away once the bed is assembled, follow the procedure below;
• Raise the bed to its full height.
• Holding one transport stand turn it so the words ‘this side to face inwards’ face
upwards.
• Slide the stand into the tubes positioned under the backrest section, push the
spring clip down and push the stand past until the clip springs back locking the
transport stand in position.
• Repeat the procedure for the remaining transport stand.

To extend the bed frame
• Unlock the foot end castors. Whilst holding the foot end near the locking collars,
pull the bed extension out until it reaches its fully extended length (the extension
will stop when it is fully extended).
• Reinsert the ‘R’ clips, spacers, and clevis pins to lock the extension out. If the clevis
pin will not fully insert into the frame, then the extension is not fully extended.
• Reconnect the foot end actuator cable to the bed frame cable clips.
• Flatten all sections and lower the bed to its minimum
height (see section 9.4 for the operation of the handset).
• Ensure the brakes are applied at the head end of the bed.
• Unclip the foot end actuator cable from the bed frame
cable clips (to prevent over extending the cable).
• Remove the ‘R’ clips, spacers, and clevis pins from both
sides of the bed frame, towards the foot end of the bed
(8.8.1).
