If there is any doubt about the selection or use of a lifting sling, please
contact your supplier.
Important!
Plan the move. Avoid leaving the user in the lifting sling unattended.
Do not start to lift until it has been checked that the user cannot get trapped
and that the sling does not catch on the bed, wheelchair etc. The user's head,
arms, hands and feet must not be in danger of becoming trapped. Be careful
with any tubes and wires that are attached to the user and/or equipment.
Check that the hand control and hand control cable is free of hanger, patient
and other object before the hoist is activated up or down moved.
