13.3.2 Lifting pole
The holder for the lifting pole is located at the head end of the patient surface frame.
Attention!
Grab handle and belt consist of high-quality plastic. However, all plastics are not
unconditionally resistant to aging, so that grab handle and belt can break or tear
after long usage. This can cause injuries. Replace grab handle and strap after 4–5
years at the latest. The year of manufacture is imprinted on the product.
If you want to attach a patient lifting pole:
▪
From above, insert the patient lifting pole into the holder.
It is held in its height position by a bolt.
▪
Turn the lifting pole so that the bolt lies in one of the notches provided in the holder.
Vertical and horizontal adjustment is possible.
Attention!
Under high load, the grab handle and belt can break or tear and cause injuries. Only
use a patient lifting pole under a maximum load of 75 kg.
▪ Attach the grab handle to the lifting pole using the strap.
Do not use distorted lifting poles and replace them immediately.
