8 - LOADING AND UNLOADING THE COT

8.1 Fastener Compatibility

The cot is compatible with all removable and
permanently-mounted versions of the Ferno
175 antler and rail fasteners (Figure 34). Configure
the fastener for use with the 35-P PROFlexx
transporters (See the Model 175 installation manual
for details).

8.2 Guidelines and Preparation

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR USE
Using the cot with a Model 175 fastener requires the
installation of the safety hook. Also, cot fasteners with
removable antlers may need to be updated. The safety
hook and parts to update a fastener are supplied with
the cot (See Setup and Installation, pages 11-13).
Using the cot with a patient requires a minimum of
two trained operators working together. Use additional
help as needed when working with heavy patients (See
Using Additional Help, page 28).
