In order to ensure the safe installation,
assembly and operation of the Bed Rails,
these instructions MUST be followed:
• Check all parts for shipping damage
before using. In case of damage, DO
NOT use the equipment. Contact your
Dealer/Carrier for further instruction.
• DO NOT install or use this equipment
without first reading and understanding
these instructions. If you are unable to
understand the Warnings, Cautions or
Instructions, contact a healthcare
professional, dealer or technical
personnel before attempting to install
this equipment — otherwise, injury or
damage may occur.
• When used with a electrical bed, the
bed rails DO NOT fall under any weight
limitations. Bed rails can be deformed
or broken if excessive side pressure is
exerted on the bed rails.
• These bed rails are used for the
purpose of preventing an individual
from inadvertently rolling out of bed.
The bed rails are NOT intended (nor
may be used) for restraint purposes.
If an individual is capable of injuring
himself/herself, a physician or a
healthcare professional should be
consulted for alternative means of
safe restraint.
• Replacement mattresses and bed rails
with dimensions DIFFERENT than
the original equipment supplied or
specified by the bed manufacturer
are NOT interchangeable. Variations
in bed rail design, width and thickness
or firmness of the mattress could
cause/contribute to entrapment. Use
ONLY authorized replacement parts.
• DO NOT use the bed rails as push
handles when moving the bed.
• This bed rail is NOT a handhold for
getting into or out of bed.
• After ANY adjustment, repair or service
and BEFORE use, make sure all
attaching hardware is tightened
securely.
• Always test to make sure that the bed
rails are properly and securely in place
BEFORE using.
• Because of the heavier weight limita-
tions associated with the Bariatric Bed,
use the mounting brackets attached to
the bed frame to assemble the half bed
rail side adjustment clamps. These
side adjustment clamps are designed
to support heavier weight limitations
and MUST be used when installing
half-length bed rails onto the Bariatric
Bed.
• We recommend that the mattress be
centered on the bed frame. Otherwise,
entrapment may occur between the
bed rail and the bed frame.
• After raising/lowering the head/foot end
of the electric bed, check the distance
between the bottom of the bed rail and
the mattress. If there is excessive
distance between the bottom of the
bed rail and the mattress in which
entrapment may occur, adjust the
height of the bed rail (if applicable),
OR provide alternative means of
patient protection.

INSTALLATION MANUAL 7. Secure the side adjustment clamp to
the top of the pan deck using one
long bolt and one locknut. Hand

8. Align the two mounting holes on the
side of the side adjustment clamp
with two of the mounting holes of the
bed rail mounting bracket located in
step 5.
9. Secure the side adjustment clamp to
the bed rail mounting bracket two
short bolts, spacers and locknut.
Hand tighten only.
10. Securely tighten all hardware.

12. Installing the Bed Rails:
Pull the plunger pin on the side
adjustment clamp and insert the
T-rail shaft into the barrel of the side
adjustment clamp. Allow the shaft to
slide to the bottom until the top
support of the bed rail rests securely
against the top of the barrel.
13. To raise the rail, lift the rail until the
plunger pin “clicks” securely into the
adjustment hole of the T rail shaft.
14. Repeat steps 12 & 13 to install the
other bed rail.
15. Position the bed in the flat position
and place the mattress on the bed
frame.
6. Place one of the side adjustment
clamps on right side of the bed so
the hole at the end of the bar is
aligned with the mounting hole
located in step 4.
5. Locate the two mounting holes on
the sides of the bed frame.
1. Remove the mattress from the bed.
2. Raise the head end of the bed.
3. Remove hardware kit labeled
BARIATRIC BED HARDWARE KIT
BAR600 located in the bed rail box
and set aside for use in installing the
cross-braces.
4. Locate the two mounting holes on
the top of the deck. They are
positioned over the cross brace so
that the mounting hole will be visible.
