Please read before using this product.

Instructions for Use

Check all parts for shipping damage and test before use.

Assembly of Side Rails

Before installing the side rails, raise the bed to the highest position and remove any objects or accessories that could become entrapped in the side rail.
Position the side rail in the desired location, ensuring a maximum safety distance of 60mm between the side rail and the headboard, and a minimum safety distance of 318mm between the side rail and the footboard.
Place the U-shaped brackets on the sides of the bed. Pass the round head screw through the hole in the moorings, with the head towards the outside of the bed. Put the washer on and fasten with the locking nut. Ensure it is very tight.

Note: The designer recommends that the railing be placed with the automatic locking system facing the head of the bed (folding the railing from head to foot). This ensures that the risk of entrapment of the patient on the headboard side is minimized.

Safety Measures During Assembly

CAUTION! The distance between the side rail and the inner face of the headboard MUST be less than 60mm.
CAUTION! The distance between the upper face of the mattress and the upper part of the side rail MUST be greater than or equal to 220mm.
CAUTION! The side rail length MUST be greater than 50% of the length of the bed base.
CAUTION! The distance between the side rail and the inside face of the footboard MUST be less than 60mm or greater than 318mm.
CAUTION! The distances between bars, or between the bottom bar and the base of the mattress MUST be less than 120mm.

Fold down side rails

Product code 910T-L, 910T-R
The fold-down side rail is a one-piece rail that extends along the side of the bed from the head to the foot section.
When the side rail is in the raised position, the automatic locking system holds the rail in place.
The side rails are safe and easy to use, as the system used to attach them folds when they are lowered, helping to prevent patients from catching themselves or having accidents.
They can be used on any kind of bed by adapting the bed’s fitting to the frame section.
The fitting takes a 50mm x 20mm frame up to a maximum of 70mm x 40mm.
When the side rail is lowered, it is the same height as the bed frame
