The patient support deck comprises articulating deck sections, such as a leg section and a foot section pivotally coupled to the leg section. A support link is arranged to support the foot section relative to the support frame. A leg section actuator is configured to move the leg section between a lowered position and one or more raised positions. A foot section adjustment device is configured to move the support link in order to move the foot section relative to the leg section. The support link has a first link end pivotally coupled to the foot section and a second link end slidably coupled to the support frame.
