INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
The XDcuff® Cuff Securement Straps (CSS), were developed to function as part of a system that enables you to quickly limit a patient’s movement, on the stretcher, should the need exist.
Made from black nylon with DuraGrip® hook & loop fasteners, the CSS attach to the stretcher’s frame. Once in position, they secure the XDcuff® disposable or reusable restraints, ( Product REF 102, 103, 101) to the stretcher and store them for rapid access.
CUFF SECUREMENT STRAP (CSS)
Attaching the Cuff Securement Strap to Stretcher
At the four recommended locations (fig-3), wrap the end of the gray stretcher
strap around the stretcher frame (as indicated in diagram at left), feed it
throught the plastic loop and back on to itself. Smooth the hoop & loop
fastener to secure (fig1). When attaching the restraint to the CSS, pull the
red release tab on the black cuff strap and open the hook & loop fastener. In
the opening, place a folded (or packaged) restraint and re-attach the cuff
strap. Smooth the hook & loop to hold the restraint in place. Your XDcuff®
restraint is now ready for use (fig-2).

- Feed the gray stretcher strap through the plastic loop (fig-5).
