Intended Use
The BHM Turntable is a track accessory to be
used with the BHM track system and a xed
ceiling lift in a homecare setting, at nursing
homes and other assisted living centres. The
BHM Turntable allows the ceiling lift to pass
from a track path to another. Patient transferring
is performed under the supervision of a trained
caregiver as per the instructions outlined in this
manual. All other uses must be avoided.
The BHM Turntable must only be used for the
purposes stated above. It must be installed by
ArjoHuntleigh authorized personnel as per local
codes.
WARNING: The BHM Turntable is not
intended to be operated by the patient.
In the event of a malfunction, the patient

transferring patients only. Do not use the
BHM Turntable for any other purpose.
Using this BHM Turntable outside the scope
of its intended use could lead to injuries.
Operational Life

life of seven (7) years or 10 000 cycles —
whichever comes rst—at maximum safe
working load (SWL). It is subject to preventive
maintenance as specied in the “Care and
Maintenance” section.
A complete cycle is dened as the rotation of
the BHM Turntable to the desired track path and
its rotation to the initial track path.
Time equivalence between the number of
cycles versus the number of years is made
clear in the following table.
