TRANSPORTING YOUR QTAC

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

• Ensure that the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the QTAC carrying vehicle
is sufficient to support your QTAC unit plus any equipment, fluids and personnel
that you may wish to carry.

General QTAC Mounting and Fastening

• Mount the QTAC at the flanges (see Figure 1), located on both sides of the skid,
using ¼" fasteners. Place a small washer under the bolt head, and a large area
washer under the nut on the bottom side of the bed. The mounting slots on the
passenger side of the vehicle are recessed so that the patient transport litter
does not get caught on the fastener head.
• Ensure that the bottom of the QTAC (including the mounting flanges) abuts a
firm, flat surface or rack. Avoid significant leveraging of the mounting flanges.
