Maintenance Tips

Disinfect after each use: Wipe frame, mattress, and restraints with mild, non-corrosive disinfectant to prevent contamination.

Inspect frame and locks: Check leg locks, handles, and welds regularly for wear, damage, or looseness.

Lubricate moving parts: Apply white-lithium grease or synthetic lubricant to leg joints and I-beam; avoid lubricating upper leg pivots.

Maintain wheels: Ensure sealed-bearing wheels roll freely; lubricate as needed without over-greasing.

Use proper rolling posture: Move the cot only in its level (rolling) position; avoid rolling in the raised “loading” posture to reduce tipping risk.

Protect the finish: Occasionally apply a light protective wax to the powder-coated frame to maintain durability.

Replace parts with approved components: Use genuine Ferno replacements for mattresses, restraints, and sidearms to maintain safety and warranty.

Store properly: Keep in a dry, indoor environment; avoid placing heavy items on the cot when not in use.
