• Do not use hand or fingers to press the release button when the rail jaws are open. The rail clamp fastener closes with a
strong spring action.
The loading and unloading operations are similar to the instructions for manual loading and unloading of a cot. However, a
rail clamp assembly is used instead of a foot end cot lock. When you load a non-compatible cot, lock the cot retaining post
into the rail clamp assembly.
The mass casualty option contains a rail assembly for wall or floor mount. You should store this rail assembly in a cabinet in
case of emergency for quick attachment in the vehicle patient compartment.
