Summary of Safety Precautions
WARNING (CONTINUED)
• Do not modify the cot. Modifying the cot can cause unpredictable operation resulting in injury to the patient or
operator. Modifying the cot will also void its warranty.
• Operating the cot with the breakaway head section lowered may cause injury to the patient or operator or damage
to the cot. Use only positions 5−7 (see page 19) when using this configuration.
• High obstacles such as curbing, steps or rough terrain can cause the cot to tip, possibly causing injury to the patient
or operator. Transporting the cot in lower positions reduces the potential of a cot tip. If possible, obtain assistance
or take an alternate route.
CAUTION
• Height limit kit is recommended for ambulance deck heights less than 30 inches (76 cm) − Stryker part number
6060−202−000.
• Damage to the cot can occur if the cot is lowered in the shortened position. Use only positions 5−7 (see page
19) when the cot is shortened.
• Do not allow the cot undercarriage to drop unassisted (commonly known as a “hot drop”) when removing the cot
from the vehicle. Repeated hot dropping will cause premature wear or damage to the cot.
• Do not store items under the cot mattress. Storing items under the mattress can interfere with the operation of
the cot.
• The weight of the I.V. bags or equipment must not exceed 40 pounds.
• Improper maintenance can cause injury or damage to the unit. Maintain the cot as described in this manual. Use
only Stryker approved parts and maintenance procedures. Using unapproved parts and procedures could cause
unpredictable operation and/or injury and will void the product warranty.
• The weight of the monitoring equipment must not exceed 75 pounds (34 kg) with the defibrillator platform (if
equipped). Monitoring equipment should not be stored on the cot or on the defibrillator platform when in the
ambulance vehicle.
