Bed Reprocessing / Bed Adaptation
Extending / Shortening the Mattress Base (Optional)
Risk of Injury due to Bed Tipping Up
The maximum weight on the foot end of the unoccupied bed when the bed is extended (e.g. by a
person on the bed) must not exceed 150 kg, as otherwise there is a danger that the bed will tip
up. The following label with information on this is located on one of the pull-out rails:
Risk of Crushing
Ensure that the resulting gap is always filled with the corresponding foam insert. This effectively
prevents the risk of the patient becoming trapped in the bed extension area. (see Available Ac-
cessories » 105)
8.2.2 Shortening the Mattress Base
Risk of Injury
There is a risk of injury due to the patient’s fingers and toes becoming trapped.
When sliding the linen holder back under the mattress base, watch your fingers!
Always grasp the upright tubing of the footboard handle bar.
Grip the bed extension release
handles from underneath with
both hands and lift them both
at the same time.
Using both hands, slide the
footboard smoothly and evenly
back under the mattress base.
Check that the knobs are firmly
locked in place by pushing the
footboard forwards and back!
