Increasing the toppling stability

To ensure that the device cannot topple over, the
accessories must be moved to the most advanta-
geous position:
– Set hinged arm to minimum extension.
– Attach hoses and cables as close as possible to
the trolley.
– Attach breathing gas humidifier to the trolley,
not the device.
