     The foot end and head end panels are almost identical. The foot end panel can be identified by the “ArjoHuntleigh” and “Minuet 2” badges attached to it. The various parts of the bed are moved by electrical devices called actuators.
  • Page 13: Mattresses

    Where the maximum patient weight specified for the mattress is different to that specified for the bed, the lower value applies. To ensure compliance with EN 60601-2-52, an approved ArjoHuntleigh mattress should be used. Compliance with this standard when using other mattresses must be validated by the user.

  • Page 15: Assembling The Bed

    Assembling the bed The bed is supplied in four main sections, fixed together on two transit brackets (A) for ease of transportation. Remove the cardboard packing block and plastic tie between the mattress platform sections. Lift the two mattress platform sections off the transit brackets and lay them on the floor.
  • Page 16 Lay the head end panel section on the floor with the two arms on the frame (C) pointing outwards towards the right as shown. Position the bed so that you can work on the underside of the mattress platform whilst assembling the bed. This will make it easier to connect the actuators to the control box.
  • Page 17 Assemble the foot end mattress platform to the head end mattress platform by sliding the two parts together. Make sure the slot (E) in the head end section locates over the bar in the foot end section (F), and thread the actuator cables through the central gap as shown. Place socket head screws into the two holes (G) on the underside of the foot end mattress platform to fix the sections together, installing the bottom screw first.
  • Page 18 Pull off the plastic cap (K) from the socket on the head end actuator (L). Plug the curly cable (M) into the actuator socket. Replace the cap, making sure it “clicks” into place; this will prevent the connector being accidentally pulled out of the actuator. Connect the foot end actuator cable in the same way.
  • Page 19 The control box actuator connections are colour coded. The bed is supplied with the backrest actuator (red), head end actuator (white) and backup battery already connected. Plug the foot end actuator cable (green) into the control box. Plug the leg section actuator cable (yellow) into the control box.
  • Page 20 When all the cables are connected, the control box should look like the picture on the left. Make sure the cables lie flat and are not twisted. Replace the control box cover by sliding it into position until it “clicks” into place.
