Channel Placement
1. Before mounting rail at desired height, consider the accessibility to the device controls including the allowable
range of movement of the device when mounted. Built to handle vertical loads up to 60 lbs (27.2155 kg).
2. Devices can only be placed 0.75” (1.905 cm) above the bottom end of the rail because of the rubber stop. Designed
for vertical or horizontal applications.
3. Recommend to allow 14” (35.56 cm) clearance on either side of the rails center line to clear objects such as over-
bed lighting, privacy curtains, adjacent walls or columns, door swing arcs, etc. Power and signal outlets should be
considered when selecting a rail location. Avoid oxygen, vacuum and air outlets, and allow space for attendant
flowmeters and regulators.
WARNING: The maximum load rating for the Standard Flanged and Flangeless rail is 100 ft-lbs (30.48 m) when
mounted vertically. Refer to qualified personnel. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury.
NOTE: The rubber stop at the bottom of the rail goes over the shank of the bottom screw. The depressible channel
stop at the top of the rail is used to secure the device, keeping it from sliding up and out of the rail tracks.
