Stryker 4700 Adel
Stryker · Model 4700 Adel
Adel Birthing bed STRYKER 4700 the patented skoocher feature adjusts seat depth from 12.5" to 8.5". The Adel has an IV pole and side rail communications. It also has the adjustable/storable calf supports, with the detachable cushioned calf pads features: Three positions side rails with in-rail motion controls. Four wheel, steel-ring brake system with centrally located activation pedal. Fluid basin, 6" Omni Surface casters with wheel covers. Wood headboard. Under bed night-light. Manual crank bed positioning back up. Self-storing handgrips.
Key tips
- ·Casters and the wheel-lock brake take the most day-to-day wear - check both every PM, not just on complaint.
- ·A cracked weld or loose frame joint is a safety-critical finding - pull the unit from service until it's repaired.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
A powered bed function will not run
HighSymptoms: Backrest, knee, height, Trendelenburg or the boost / turn assist will not move from the siderail or caregiver controls.
Root cause: Failed linear actuator, a control-board fault, a control-panel fault, or a pinched / damaged control cable.
Brake / castor-lock fault
MediumSymptoms: Bed will not brake or release, drifts, central brake pedal ineffective.
Root cause: Worn central-brake linkage or castor.
Integrated scale / bed-exit fault
MediumSymptoms: Weight reads implausibly or will not zero, bed-exit alarm false-triggers or fails.
Root cause: Load-cell drift or damage, or a scale-control fault.
Battery back-up fault
MediumSymptoms: Functions and alarms do not work during a power interruption, battery-fault indicator.
Root cause: Aged back-up battery or a charger fault.
Siderail / CPR-release / mechanical fault
LowSymptoms: Siderail will not latch, rattles, or the CPR release is slow / stiff.
Root cause: Worn siderail latch or the CPR mechanism.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Caster / wheel and brake function check
- ·Frame, weld, and mounting-hardware inspection
- ·Upholstery / surface condition check
- ·Annual full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: A powered function will not run (backrest / knee / height / Trendelenburg / boost)
- Confirm the bed is plugged in and the battery is charged, and that no function lock-out is set on the caregiver panel.
- Try the function from both the siderail control and the caregiver control to separate the control from the actuator.
- Inspect the control cable / harness for pinch damage along the articulating frame.
- Listen for the actuator; measure its supply at the control box.
- Replace the actuator or the control board as isolated, then load-test to the rated capacity.
Symptom: Brake / castor-lock will not hold or release / bed drifts
- Check the central brake pedal travel and the linkage to each castor.
- Adjust the central-brake linkage per the manual.
- Replace worn castors and the fifth-wheel / steer components.
- Confirm the brake holds on a slope with a load.
- Check all castors engage evenly.
Symptom: Integrated scale reads wrong / bed-exit alarm false-triggers or fails
- Remove all load and confirm the scale zeros and can be tared.
- Place a known reference weight and check the reading.
- Inspect the load-cell mounts for binding, debris or a pinched cable.
- Recalibrate the scale per the service procedure.
- Replace the load-cell set if it will not hold calibration; re-test the bed-exit zones.
Symptom: Functions / alarms dead on a power interruption (battery back-up)
- Check the battery-fault indicator and the charge state.
- Run a battery test if the bed supports one.
- Inspect the battery connector and charger.
- Replace the back-up battery.
- Confirm functions and alarms work on battery after replacement.
