USING THE KICKSTAND FOR DIALYSIS SCALE
The kickstand is intended for weighing patients on a scale.
Note:
• The kickstand assembly is configured for an X-frame cot retention system only.
• The kickstand (p/n 6085-002-000) is not compatible with the optional base storage net (p/n 6500-160-000).
WARNING
• Stryker recommends a two person operation when using the kickstand.
• Make sure that the patient weight is centered on the cot before using the kickstand.
• Engage the kickstand with your foot only.
• Lower cot height prior to engaging kickstand for increased stability.
• Make sure that the kickstand remains in the retracted position and does not engage during transport.
• Do not use the kickstand as a brake.
• Do not engage kickstand on a sloped surface.
To use the kickstand:
1. Operator 1 engages the kickstand with their foot as shown in Figure 51.
2. Operator 2 lifts the foot end of the cot at a height sufficient to actuate the kickstand.
3. Both operators must make sure that the kickstand is in the forward locked position as shown in Figure 52.
To release the kickstand:
1. Operator 1 lifts the foot end of the cot until both wheels
are off of the floor.
2. Operator 2 rolls the cot slightly forward to make sure
that the kickstand retracts on its own as shown in
Figure 53.
