• Always support the load of the patient, cot, and accessories after the weight is off of the ground.
Always use additional assistance if needed. A minimum of one trained operator is required for this task. You must be able to
lift the total weight of the patient, cot, and any other items on the cot. The higher you must lift the cot, the more difficult it
becomes to hold the weight. You may need help to load the cot into a vehicle if you are too short or if the patient is too
heavy to safely lift.
See Positioning operators and helpers (page 19).
To unload the cot from a vehicle:
1. Lift the vehicle bumper to the raised position, if equipped.
2. Release the cot from the cot fastener.
3. At the foot end of the cot, hold the hand grips while you squeeze and hold the red release handle.
4. Guide the cot out of the vehicle or loading tray system until the rear legs of the cot lower and fully extend.
5. Release the red release handle after the legs are fully extended.
6. Make sure the rear legs are securely locked.
7. Guide the cot backward out of the vehicle or loading tray system until the front legs of the cot lower and fully extend.
8. Make sure that the front legs are locked. If required, slightly lift the cot to allow the legs to fully extend and lock.
9. Remove the load wheels from the patient compartment of the vehicle.
10. Roll the cot away from the vehicle.
