7.4 Removing the Stretcher Top
From the Undercarriage
Removing the stretcher top from the undercarriage
requires a minimum of two operators working together.
1. Disengage the Quick Fix lock (Figure 33). See
Quick Fix Lock, page 12 for complete instructions.
2. Both Operators: Extend the stretcher-top carrying
handles.
3. Foot-End Operator: Pull the stretcher top toward
yourself until the hooks on the stretcher top and
undercarriage are disengaged.
Head-End Operator: Hold the undercarriage
steady or pull it slightly away from the Foot-End
Operator, as needed.
4. Both Operators: Lift the stretcher top off the
undercarriage (Figure 34). Use additional help as
needed (see Using Additional Help, page 33).
5. Leave the Quick Fix lock unlocked so the
undercarriage is ready when you wish to reattach
the stretcher top.
