Emergency lowering - back part (optional)
In an emergency, the backrest can be lowered by means of a mechanical device on the
nursing care bed. To do this, move the red operating lever upwards in the direction of the
head end piece. The speed of lowering depends on the weight of the mattress and the
weight of the patient.
With heavy patients, the backrest can lower very quickly. Always lower the backrest with one
hand on the mattress bracket to check the adjustment.
Operation:
Hold the mattress bracket (1) on the backrest with one hand and move the red operat-
ing lever (2) upwards with the other hand in the direction of the head end piece (see ar-
row direction). The backrest moves downwards. Hold your hand on the mattress bracket
(1) until you release the control lever (2). The backrest will then be held in this position.
Make sure that the control lever (2) points vertically downwards again after the opera-
tion.
With the practico alu SCC nursing care bed model, the head part motor must be retracted com-
pletely once with the hand control after using the emergency release.
