3.3 BRAKING AND STEERING OPERATION WITH SMART CASTER TECHNOLOGY

3.3.1 Applying the Brakes
To apply the four wheel central braking system with the pendant, press the pendant Brake On / Off button; the LED above the button then illuminates green (Figure 3.3-1), and the blue caster pedals on all four corners of the stretcher automatically lower to lock (Figure 3.3-2), and all four caster wheels will then be locked from swiveling and rotating.

Info: To prevent unintended movement, the brakes engage automatically after the unit has been stationary for 30 seconds.
To apply the four-wheel central braking system manually, gently depress the blue caster pedal at any of the four corners of the stretcher until the pedal stops (Figure 3.3-2). The remaining three pedals will then automatically lower to lock (Figure 3.3-2), and all four caster wheels will then be locked from swiveling and rotating.

**** NOTICE: DO NOT apply excessive force to pedal when manually applying brakes.

3.3.2 Unlocking the Brakes
To unlock the brakes with the pendant, press the pendant Brake On / Off button; the LED above the button then goes out (Figure 3.3-3),
the blue caster pedals on all four corners of the stretcher will then automatically rise to unlock (Figure 3.3-4), and all four caster wheels will then rotate and swivel freely.

To unlock the brakes manually, gently lift the blue caster pedal at any of the four corners of the stretcher until the pedal is in a horizontal position (Figure 3.3-4); the remaining three pedals will then automatically rise to unlock and all four caster wheels will then rotate and swivel freely.

WARNING: Ensure the brakes are locked when the patient is not being transported.
NOTICE: DO NOT apply excessive force to pedal when manually unlocking brakes.

3.3.3 Activating Advanced Steer Mode — Pendant
To activate Advanced Steer Mode with the pendant, press the pendant Steer Mode On / Off button.
The LED above the button then illuminates green (Figure 3.3-5), and the blue caster pedals automatically rise (Figure 3.3-6) at the patient foot end of the stretcher.
All four caster brakes will unlock and the stretcher will be ready for transport. Push the stretcher forward or backward — both front casters will lock into Steer-Lock position, which is ideal for pushing the stretcher from the patient head end. The stretcher will steer along a straight path, maneuver corners, and change direction with minimal effort.

Note: The steer mode function (both by pendant or manual) is disabled for stretchers with the Navigator SmartDrive System. Activation with the pendant results in an audible beep. Manual activation will immediately return to the neutral position.
Info: The casters will lock into Steer-Lock position when turned to 6 o’clock or 12 o’clock, with the stretcher’s patient foot end being 12 o’clock.

Info: Depending upon how the casters are oriented when they lock, they can lock into Steer-Lock position while trailing (6 o’clock) or leading (12 o’clock). If the casters lock in opposite orientations, steering may be more difficult.
Info: The pendant will only lock the foot end casters into Steer-Lock position.

3.3.4 Activating Advanced Steer Mode – Manually
When pushing from the head end: Activate foot end Advanced Steer Mode by lifting the blue pedal upward on either head end caster until the pedal stops (Figure 3.3-6). Both foot end pedals will then rise to lock foot end casters into Steer-Lock position, the head end pedals will return to neutral position (Figure 3.3-4), and the LED above the pendant Steer Mode On / Off button will illuminate green (Figure 3.3-5).

When pushing from the foot end : Activate head end Advanced Steer Mode by lifting the blue pedal upward on either foot end caster until the pedal stops (Figure 3.3-6). Both head end pedals will then rise to lock the head end casters into Steer-Lock position, the foot end pedals will return to neutral position (Figure 3.3-4), and the LED above the pendant Steer Mode On / Off button will illuminate green (Figure 3.3-5).
Info: It is not possible to lock the head end casters into Steer-Lock position with the pendant. This can only be done with the foot end manual activation.

3.3.5 Deactivating Advanced Steer Mode —Pendant
To deactivate Advanced Steer Mode with the pendant, press the pendant Steer Mode On / Off button. The LED above the button will go out (Figure 3.3-7) and the blue caster pedals in Steer-Lock position will automatically lower to neutral position (Figure 3.3-4). All four casters will now rotate and swivel freely.
Info: All four casters must be parallel to each other in the 6 o’clock or 12 o’clock position to be able to properly go into neutral position.
Failure to place casters in this orientation may cause the Steer Mode On / Off button to not deactivate Steer Mode.

3.3.6 Deactivating Advanced Steer Mode – Manually
Depress the blue caster pedal down to the neutral position (Figure 3.3-4) on either caster locked into Steer-Lock position. All four casters will now rotate and swivel freely. Depressing the blue pedal down past neutral until it stops will apply all four caster brakes (Figure 3.3-2), locking all four casters into brake position.

Info: After thirty seconds of no movement, Advanced Steer Mode automatically deactivates and all four caster wheels lock into brake position.
WARNING: To prevent unintended movement, activate or deactivate Advanced Steer Mode onlywhile the stretcher is stopped.
