down with your foot in the direction of the
arrow.
Braked castors.
To release the castor brake, press the pedal
down with your foot in the direction of the ar-
row.
Caution! To safely brake the bed, the brake must be applied on all 4 castors.
9.1.3 Moving, Braking the Bed (Central Locking Castors)
In this variant, the castors at the foot end of the bed are fitted with pedals which enable all four
castors to be braked. To enable the bed to move in a straight line during transport, the central cas-
tors are fitted with a steering lock which makes it easier to move the bed in a straight line and en-
sures enhanced cornering stability.
Moving with Steering Lock: Lift the
pedal at far as possible with the back
of your foot (A).
Moving without Steering Lock: Use
your foot to bring the foot pedal to a
horizontal position.
Braking: Press the foot pedal down
with your foot (C).
D = Direction of travel / head end
The castors must first be swiv-
elled to the direction of travel. In
this position (with the steering
lock engaged), the bed can only
be manoeuvred from the foot end
once the steering lock has en-
gaged. The bed is pushed from
this end.
