WARNING
CAUTION

Head end
g Locking 4 casters
Push down the orange side of the
pedal to lock the swivel and
rotation of all 4 casters.
Inspect the casters regularly. Casters wear out and deteriorate depending on the operating
frequency and environment (deterioration may be accelerated in a high temperature and hu-
midity environment). If the performance of the stopper deteriorates or wheels are discolored
or cracked, contact Paramount Bed (see p. 118) or your distributor for after-sales services,
such as repair.
Lock casters at all times except when moving the bed. When the patient
gets into or out of the bed, the bed may move unexpectedly, resulting in
injury.
n When locking the casters, be careful to prevent your foot from getting
caught in a gap between the side pedal and floor. You may accidentally
injure yourself.
n Do not forcibly move the bed when the casters are locked. The bed may
break or the casters may damage the floor.
