1. Grasp the head-end lifting handles with both hands.
2. Attach the two separate parts of the TSL in order to close the stretcher. It is not necessary to press the buttons to close the
device.
3. Repeat the same operations for the foot end.
4. Check the TSL is locked correctly. To check the device is locked correctly, grip the handles and pull, trying to separate the
