Firmly support the bed and raise the right hand tilt handle, situated at the foot end
of the mattress platform. While holding the handle lift the mattress frame up to
a maximum of 12º in 2º increments to the desired level of tilt. Releasing the
handle will lock the bed in the required position.
Foot Down Tilt:
Firmly support the bed and raise both tilt handles, situated at the footend of the
mattress platform. While holding both handles lower the footend to a maximum

To Level the Bed:
Firmly support the bed and raise the right hand tilt handle, situated at the footend
of the mattress platform, while holding the handle raise or lower the footend
until it is level.
When operating the tilt function always ensure the lock pin has engaged after the
handle is released.
Braking and Steering
There are two linked brake pedals at the foot end of the bed which control all
the castors simultaneously.
•When the pedal is in the ‘steer’
position it locks one castor on the bed
so that it cannot swivel. This allows the
bed to be steered when being pushed
from the head end of the bed.
•When the pedal is in the ‘free’
position no castors are locked, allowing
all to swivel freely.
•When the pedal is in the ‘brake’
position three castors are locked and
the bed then cannot move.

Raising and Lowering the Backrest

mattress platform. While holding the

push the backrest down to the desired
position. Note: The backrest may
drop under it’s own weight when the
lever is lifted, depending on the weight
of the patient.

Cleaning Procedure
Biocote:
Your bed comes with an antibacterial additive incorporated into the
powder coated metalwork. Biocote™ inhibits the growth of bacteria on the
surface of the bed frame. It is effective against a wide range of both gram
positive and negative bacteria as well as fungi. Examples of bacteria that
Biocote™ is resistant to include:
Bacillus Subtilis
Escerichia Coli 0157
Salmonella Enteritides
Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA)
Streptococcus Faecalis
Listeria Monocytogenes
Biocote™ is an aid to keeping your bed infection free but it does not
substitute the need for the bed to be cleaned at regular intervals.
Cleaning:
All surfaces to be wiped down with a soft cloth moistened with a mild
detergent (or the hospital’s recommended cleaning solution) and diluted in
hot water. Extra care should be taken around areas where excess dirt or
dust may gather. Rinse down with clean water and dry off with a paper
towel.
If any infectious material(s) have been in contact with the bed or it has been
used by a patient with a known infection, the above procedure should be
followed by an additional clean with NaDCC (Presept, Actichlor) at 10,000
PPM of Chlorine (or instructions as prescribed by manufacturer). Rinse and
dry again.
Always ensure that cleaned parts are allowed to dry before putting the
mattress back in place.

Maintenance
The Kings Fund Bed is designed to require very little maintenance, however if
there are any signs of damage, or the bed is not performing as it should, then
