Safety
Lifting the Resident
WARNING: Before lifting the resident, ensure legs on adjustable base lift are in the full
open/locked position.
WARNING: After elevating the resident a few inches above a stationary object, ensure the sling
and all attachments are secure and properly connected. If any attachments are not properly in
place, lower the resident back onto the stationary object and correct this problem. Adjustments for
safety and comfort should be made before moving the resident. Be sure the resident's arms are
inside the straps.
WARNING: Use of other manufacturers' components or accessories may compromise the
operation and are not to be utilized as a component of this resident lift system. The warranty will
be voided.
WARNING: During transfers with the resident suspended in a sling attached to the lift, DO NOT
roll caster base over uneven surfaces that could cause the resident lift to tip over. Use steering
handle on the mast at all times to push or pull the resident lift.
WARNING: When lifting a resident, DO NOT lock the rear casters. Doing so could cause the lift
to tip and could injure the resident or assistants. The rear casters should be left unlocked during lifts
to allow the resident lift to stabilize itself when the resident is initially lifted from a chair, bed or any
stationary object.
Transferring the Resident
WARNING: After elevating the resident a few inches above a stationary object, ensure the sling
and all attachments are secure and properly connected. If any attachments are not properly in place,
lower the resident back onto the stationary object and correct this problem.
WARNING: Before lowering resident into a wheelchair, be sure wheel locks are in a locked position.
WARNING: Before transferring, ensure the resident's weight does not exceed the 400 lb. weight
capacity of the resident lift. In addition, ensure the legs of the lift are in the maximum open position
for ideal safety and stability. If it is necessary to maneuver through a narrow opening, close the legs
of the lift for only the time it takes to move through it, and open again to maximum open position.
WARNING: Be sure to check the sling attachments each time the sling is removed and replaced to
ensure it is properly attached before the resident is lifted from the bed or chair.
WARNING: Ensure mast is securely fastened for safety. All resident lift nuts, bolts and other
attachments must be checked at least every six months in conjunction with periodic maintenance.
Performing Maintenance
WARNING: Maintenance MUST be performed ONLY by qualifi ed personnel.
WARNING: Ensure proper resident lift operation by performing regular maintenance. DO NOT
overtighten hardware. Product damage may occur. After the fi rst 12 months of operation, inspect all
pivot points and fasteners for wear. If the metal is worn, the parts MUST be replaced. Inspect these
parts every six months thereafter.
WARNING: Casters and axle bolts must be inspected every six months to check for tightness
and wear.
WARNING: Never use a lift if you suspect any portion of it is damaged or worn.
