1.4. USE
The Leo MED bed with scissor-pantograph mechanism has been designed to provide
the user with optimal independence and freedom whilst aiding the manual handling
requirements of the carer. The Leo bed with a 9-button handset (Trendelenburg
position locked-off) is intended for use within hospitals, long-term care facilities or
domestic environment. A 10-button handset is intended for use in the following
environments in long-term care facilities, where medical care and health monitoring
are required (e. g. nursing homes, rehabilitations centres, geriatric wards).
The bed significantly relieves a caregiver thanks to a fully electrically profiled platform
that enables to adjust the position to the user’s needs.
The bed is designed for users with a minimum height from 146 to 185 cm (when the
bed length extension is not fitted), BMI greater than 17 and a maximum weight up to
178 kg. The lower (or upper) age limit is not defined. The usability of the bed depends
on the physical size of the patient in relation to the various proportions and spaces
around the bed’s frame. It is not intended for patients weighting less than 40 kg.
The bed is intended for one person only!
The bed is designed to support the patient’s weight (as described above) while
sleeping or resting. It assists in the care and/or ensures comfort for the patient or
caregiver –when the bed is used in long-term care facilities.
It is the carer’s responsibility to determine that the patient is both mentally and
physically capable of occupying the bed with minimal risk of personal injury.
▪A risk assessment must always be performed on the suitability
of the patient to the bed frame and any ancillary accessories.

with the information provided in these instructions for use.
▪The bed should be used in acceptance with its intended
purpose.
▪The bed is not suitable for children. If used by a child, ensure
that a risk assessment has been conducted –taking into
account the child’s proportions and the dimensions of the bed’s
frame.
▪The bed is not suitable for users with a height less than 146 cm

▪Misused electrical equipment may be hazardous.
▪Accessories that have not been designed for use with the bed
should not be used.
▪The use of additional mechanical or electrical devices that are
not intended for use with the bed is unacceptable.
▪Only original spare parts supplied by the manufacturer are
allowed.
▪The bed cannot be used if any screws/parts are missing.
▪During transport, hold only the constant, massive parts of the
bed ends!
▪During assembly / disassembly and regular operation,

8
particular attention should be paid to the risk of hand injury.
▪Start and use of the defective device that could pose a risk to
patients or others is forbidden.
▪Actuators should not be used in the presence of flammable
gases.
▪The bed should be used and kept away from heat sources and
open flames (e. g. cigarettes, electric fire, heaters, etc.) –risk
of explosion / fire.
▪It is forbidden to open covers of actuators, control box and
power supply! Disassembly and seal break will void the
warranty and create risk of electric shock!
▪Particular attention should be paid to current wiring not being
among movable parts of backrest / leg section and high / low
system of the bed, which may cause malfunction.
▪All lines must be suspended on dedicated brackets, so they are
not frayed and do not touch the floor.
▪Ensure that mains cable is plugged into an appropriate power
source at all times.
▪The mains plug is the disconnect device for the means of
isolating the bed from the mains supply, the plug must be
accessible at all times.
▪Pulling the plug out of the socket is permissible only for holding
the body of the plug / adapter, not the cord.
▪Inappropriate handling / positioning of the mains cable could
cause kinking or shearing of the cable which may lead to
exposed live wires - risk of electrocution.
▪If you cannot plug the main power cable directly into a wall
socket, only the CE marked extension cables may be used.
▪If the product is connected to the power supply with an
extension cable, never overload the product by connecting
devices that exceed the maximum rating of the extension cable
–risk of fire.
▪Make sure that there are not many sockets under the frame –
liquids that may seep into such a socket during normal use of
the bed may pose electrical/fire hazard.
▪The place of use of the bed there should be no obstacles to the
proper operation or installation.
▪Setting up and using the bed should be on flat, horizontal
surfaces so that all the castors touch the ground.
▪Before each use, check the bed and lock all four wheels.
▪Wheels should be locked/unlocked by foot, not by hand.
▪The bed should be in the lowest position if the patient is left

9
unattended, in order to minimize the risk of injury caused by a
fall.
▪A handset must be locked if the patient should not change the
height and/or tilt of the back and/or leg sections, or when there
are doubts concerning the patient’s ability to safety control the
functions of the bed.
▪In the absence of supervision of the patient (if such
circumstances occur), the bed should be set to the highest
position of railings on both sides of the bed. Unlocking and
lowering them can be done only by the person responsible
(care person or nurse).
▪The patient should not be left in the Trendelenburg or reverse
Trendelenburg position!
▪The bed is not intended for patient’s transportation. The
manufacturer allows moving the bed with patient within the
room to clean or gain access to the patient. In such a case,
special attention should be paid to disconnect the bed from the
power supply before transporting the bed. The transportation
should take place in the lowest position of the mattress
platform while maintaining the patient in the horizontal lying
position.
▪Side rails must be installed on both sides of the bed (on theside
of the wall as well).
▪Standard height side rails enable to use mattresses with a
maximum height of 150 mm.
▪Side rails may only be used with proper size mattresses
intended for the bed –otherwise there is a risk of the user
entrapment.
▪Leaning against or resting on rails may cause accidents!
▪Leaning out of the bed is a threat of injury!
▪In case of damage to the rails (bending, breaking, cracking etc.),
they should be immediately replaced with new ones due to the
risk of an accident.
▪Placing limbs between the moving elements of the bed may
cause injury and accidents.
▪Do not exceed the safe working load of the bed!
▪Maximum operating time of actuators is 2 minutes for 18
minutes break. Failure to comply with the afore-mentioned
will result in permanent damage to the actuator.
▪During the adjustment and maintenance attention should be
paid to ensure that no part of the body is found in the

10
potentially hazardous section (movable: backrest section, leg
section, high / low system, side rails) - risk of injury to the limbs!
▪Particular attention should be paid to small children, the
patient's limb or other items around the bed that could entrap
in a space between mattress platform and the chassis and be
damaged or injured.
▪Do not sit on the raised sections of the back, thigh and lower
leg.
▪Bear in mind that self-repair poses a risk of accidents or
damage to the bed!
▪Maintenance, repair and disinfection may be conducted only
by specially trained persons.
▪It is forbidden to modify the bed’s frame without the consent
of the manufacturer –this poses a risk of danger.
▪Precautions are to be taken when routing cables from external
equipment around the bed to ensure that they do not become
squeezed, trapped or damaged - risk of electric shock and/or
fire.
▪All electrical components that are a part of the bed and/or
related accessories, which are damaged, must be immediately
withdrawn from service and replaced –damaged electrical
components may present a risk of electric shock/fire.
▪If the bed will be used with a hoist, make sure that there is
enough space under the bed to lower the bed to the lowest
possible position of the mattress platform –risk of crushing of
the bed’s frame.
▪Due to the small space under the bed, special attention should
be paid to young children, user limbs and other items around
the bed that could be trapped between the bed’s components
and injured or damaged.
▪The RF emissions from the electrical system are very low and
are not likely to cause any interference to nearby electronic
equipment, however interference to sensitive equipment is
possible (see section 14 for further detail).
