Unsnap yellow support strap and release pack down into fully extended position.
2. Install lower leg proning packs:
Position packs across patient's shins; avoid applying pressure to patient's feet, toes, knees or top of
foot. Shorter patients may not require lower leg packs for support. Refer to illustration below to
determine placement of packs on different patients.
If a shorter patient does not require the lower leg packs for support, the packs still must be
secured for the unit to operate. If the packs are not used, simply secure them below the patient's
feet.
Ensure invasive lines and tubes are not bent, compressed or kinked after lower leg proning pack
placement.

Do not place upper leg proning pack over knees or lower leg or toes. Patient's knees and toes
should be visible.
Fasten pack buckles and tighten pack straps.
Tightness of pack straps will vary according to each patient's needs. Straps need to be as tight as
can be tolerated, as patient will shift into the prone packs and away from the patient surface when
moved into prone position.
