PNEUMATIC FOWLER ADJUSTMENT
Tools Required:
• (2) 3/8” Combination Wrenches
Procedure:
1. Apply the brakes.
2. Raise the litter to its highest height.
3. Raise the fowler to 70°
4. Using (2) 3/8” combination wrenches, loosen the two nuts on the adjustment screw (B). If the fowler is not holding
its position, turn the adjustment screw up and away from the release pin on the pneumatic cylinder. If the fowler is
not releasing, turn the adjustment screw down, toward the release pin on the pneumatic cylinder. Tighten the two
nuts. Repeat for the other side of the fowler.
5. To verify that both sides of the fowler are releasing equally, raise the fowler to the full up position. Using two hands,
pull down on both sides of the fowler, squeeze both release handles and verify that both pneumatic cylinders
release equally. If they do not, repeat step 4.
6. Verify proper operation before returning the unit to service.
