2 INTRODUCTION, PATRIOT HOMECARE BED USER MANUAL
This manual contains assembly and maintenance instructions for your Model
US0208 / US0208PL Semi-Electric and US0458 / US0458PL Full-Electric / Low
Patriot bed. Read the entire manual carefully before using your bed, and refer
to it during use if you have questions.
THERMAL MOTOR PROTECTION This product is powered by a quiet, efficient DC
motor system. When the bed is plugged into a power outlet, the electrical
transformer is always energized in a stand-by condition. The Okimat actuator
casing may feel warm to the touch even when the bed is not being used; this is
a normal condition.
Thermal protection activation (protection against overheating caused by
excessive or extended periods of operation), which causes the bed to shut down
operation when overheated, is a safety feature of this product. Causes of
thermal protection activation include multiple or repeated adjustment of long
duration, or the use of multiple functions at one time. To ensure trouble-free
operation, always allow a slight pause between multiple adjustments, and avoid
operating more than one function at a time. If thermal protection activation
occurs, the bed pendant hand control will not function. The thermal protection
will reset after a period of time dependent on the severity of the
overheating. To shorten the reset time, temporarily unplug the power cord from
the power outlet.
GRAVITY-DOWN FEATURE FOR HEAD AND KNEE ELEVATION
Patriot beds are equipped with a gravity-down safety feature. The motors push
the head and knee grid decks up, but do not pull the knee and head down. As
the motor plunger retracts, the head and knee lower freely, minimizing bed
damage and/or personal injury from items caught under the grid deck.
Info: When using telescoping deck-mount bed rails, the head and knee may not
lower without weight on the bed.
