2. Operation of Invacare®Octave

Always leave the bed in the lowest position. Otherwise there is a risk of entrapment due to accidental lowering of the mattress support. A person can be seriously injured under the bed during height adjustment.

Operating castors with central braking system Braking the bed: If the brake is in neutral, step on the red pedal. Releasing the brake: Step on the green pedal, until the brake is in the neutral position.

The bed’s castors must be locked whilst nursing a patient in bed or when using any positioning function. The bed must be locked when the patient moving in and out of the bed. The bed must not be transported when occupied.

The castors might under special conditions be difficult to manouvre due to the floor covering being untreated or in poor condition. In matters of doubt, Invacare recommends the placement of a suitable type of protection between the castors and the floor.

Operation of the BRITT IV wooden siderail UP: Pull up the top wooden bar, until the locking pin locks with an audible click. DOWN: Lift the top wooden bar and press the two locking pins together. Lower the siderail.
