Service Information
SIDERAIL LATCH ADJUSTMENT
Required Tools:
1/8 Hex Allen Wrench
WARNING
The siderail latch adjustment is pre–set at the factory, and there should not normally be a need for readjust-
ment. If adjustment must be done it is important to follow the procedure below. If it is not done properly, injury
to the patient or user could occur.
Adjustment Procedure:
1. Using a 1/8 hex Allen wrench, adjust the hex Allen screw located on the latch assembly opposite the latch.
Turning the Allen screw clockwise will DECREASEthe amount of ”play”in the latching mechanism. Turn-
ing counterclockwise will INCREASE the amount.
NOTE
The amount of ”play”in the siderail, when in full up engaged position, should be approximately 1/8 to 3/16
inches.
CAUTION
Too much ”play”when the siderail is in the full up engaged position will give the siderail the appearance of
being unstable and could also cause premature wearing of the latch system.
Too little ”play”will obstruct the latch and keep it from engaging completely in the full up position, which may
cause damage to the latch and/or injury to the patient or user.
TRANSFER BOARD COUNTERBALANCE ADJUSTMENT
Required Tools:
7/16 Open End Wrench
Adjustment Procedure:
1. Raise the transfer board to the full up position.
2. Unhook the extension spring at the eye bolt.
3. Using a 7/16 open end wrench, loosen the jam nut at the eye bolt.
4. Adjust the eye bolt to the desired position.
5. Tighten the jam nut.
6. Hook the extension spring to the eye bolt.
7. Allow the transfer board to lower on its own.
8. Repeat steps 1–7 until the desired counterbalance is achieved.

Service Information
PEDAL LINKAGE ADJUSTMENT –DUAL SIDE CONTROL BASE
Required Tools:
3/32 Hex Allen Wrench
7/16 Open End Wrench
1/2 Open End Wrench
(2) Wooden blocks (10 –12 inches in length)
Adjustment Procedure:
1. Pump the litter up to full height.
2. Lift the base hood, separating the hood from the base frame. Using the wooden blocks, support the base
hood.
3. To adjust the foot end descent pedal, use a 5/32 hex Allen wrench to loosen the set screw (C) in the stop
collar (D) on the release rod. Hold the pedal parallel to the floor and slide the collar up to the bracket on
the release rod. Tighten the set screw on the stop collar. Be sure the head end and foot end descent
pedals are level with each other. Repeat for the head end pedal, if necessary.
4. Once the pedals are level, be sure the paddle on the end of the release rod for the foot end jack is slightly
touching the actuating stem on the jack base. If it is not, use a 3/32 hex Allen wrench to loosen the set
screw on the paddle hub. Adjust the paddle to JUST touch the stem of the jack. Tighten the set screw
in the paddle hub. Repeat for the head end jack, if necessary.
5. Depress the pedal for the foot end jack. The jack should start to descend about the same time the paddle
on the end of the rod contacts the sleeve on the jack actuating stem. The bracket on the foot pedal body
should hit the stop screw (B). Any further movement could cause damage to the stem components inside
the jack housing. To adjust the stop screw, use a 1/2 open end wrench to loosen the hex jam nut (A).
Turn the screw and re–tighten the hex jam nut. Repeat for the head end jack.
6. Pump the litter up to full height.
7. Step on both descent pedals at the same time. Both ends of the litter should lower with the foot end lower-
ing slightly faster than the head end. If it does not, refer to the procedure for adjusting the jack descent
rate.
8. Remove the wooden blocks supporting the base hood. Use the pedal cut–outs on the side of the hood
as a guide for proper re–positioning.

Service Information
PEDAL LINKAGE ADJUSTMENT –DUAL END CONTROL BASE
Required Tools:
7/16 Open End Wrench
1/2 Open End Wrench
(2) Wooden Blocks (10 –12 inches in length)
Adjustment Procedure:
1. Pump the litter up to full height.
2. Lift the base hood, separating the hood from the base frame. Using the wooden blocks, support the base
hood.
3. The descent pedals should be level with each other and there should be approximately 4 inches between
the floor and the bottom of the pedal. To raise the pedal height, use a 1/2 open end wrench to loosen the
hex jam nut (E). Using your hand, turn the screw (D) into the bracket. To lower the pedal height, loosen
the screw. Tighten the hex jam nut (E) after the correct height is achieved.
4. Once the pedals are level, the release rod can be adjusted. Using a 7/16 wrench, turn nut (B) clockwise
to shorten the release length and counterclockwise to increase the length.
5. Depress the pedal and be sure the jack descent is triggered when the pedal is approximately one inch from
the floor. The descent should stop when the pedal is released and the jack height should hold. Repeat
the above procedures for the descent pedal at the other end of the bed.
6. After adjusting each descent pedal individually, depress both pedals at the same time. Both jacks should
start descending when the pedals are approximately one inch from the floor. The foot end should lower
slightly faster than the head end. If it does not, see procedure for adjusting the jack descent rate.
7. Remove the wooden blocks supporting the base hood and secure the hood to the base frame.

4. Lower the jack to the full down position.
5. Using a 3/4 open end wrench, slowly turn the fill plug located on the side of the reservoir counterclockwise
to allow excess system pressure to vent. Remove the fill plug.
6. The hydraulic fluid should be visible at the bottom of the fill hole. If it is not, add Mobil Aero HFA hydraulic
fluid (Stryker part number 2020–70–475) until the fluid is visible at the bottom of the fill hole. Replace the
fill plug.
CAUTION
Use of other types of oil may damage hydraulic units.
7. Replace the hood and the litter.
REMOVAL OF EXCESS AIR (VACUUM) FROM THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Procedure:
1. Verify all hydraulic linkages are secure and operating properly (see pedal linkage adjustment procedure
page 6 or 7).
2. Using pump pedal, actuate system several times. This will force the air through the system and the jack
should now pump up.

JACK DESCENT RATE ADJUSTMENT
Required Tools:
Screwdriver
(2) Wooden Blocks (10 –12 inches in length)
Adjustment Procedure:
1. Pump the litter up to full height.
2. Lift the base hood, separating the hood from the base frame. Using the wooden blocks, support the base
hood.
3. The descent rate needle valve is located on the base of the jack. Turning the needle valve clockwise, with
a screwdriver, will decrease the rate of descent. Turning it counterclockwise will increase the rate of de-
scent.
4. Adjust the needle valve so that the foot end of the stretcher descends slightly faster than the head end.
NOTE
The larger percentage of a patient’s weight is located in the torso area. Adjust descent rate accordingly.
5. Remove the wooden blocks supporting the base hood and secure the hood to the base frame.
NOTE
The jack descent rate was preset at the factory to drop the foot end faster than the head. It is recommended
that the foot drop faster to avoid patient disorientation.
