Questions and answers
When replacing the 5 inch load wheels on my Ferno 24 mortuary cot, I find that the bolts on the loading wheel axle will not budge. I suspect the axle end has been flattened out preventing the bolt from unscrewing from the axle. I guess I will have to cut the bolt off and replace the entire axle? Do you sell that part?
Yes, Ferno sells the loading axle for the 24 mortuary cot. The parts list includes "190-1509 Loading axle w/cover, inserts (burgundy) 1," which indicates that a replacement axle is available.
