SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS
GENERAL
IMPORTANT CAREFULLY READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS OR SERIOUS INJURY
MAY RESULT.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE LIFT AT ALL TIMES.
READ OPERATING MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL BEFORE
INSTALLING, OPERATING OR SERVICING THIS EQUIPMENT.
YOUR LIFT is for transferring patients only. Do not use the lift for a ny other purpose.
ALWAYS carry out the daily checklist before using the lift.
BHM medical patient lifts are designed specifically for use with slings and accessories
manufactured by BHM Medical. We cannot ensure the safety of a transfer, and therefore
can not be held responsible, for any incident that may occur as a result of the use of
slings or accessories produced by another manufacturer. In order to ensure the safety of
the patient and that of the caregiver use only products manufactured by BHM Medical
with this patient lift.
This mobile floor lift is intended to be used for patients within the specified weight limit
indicated for the lif t. Do not attempt to lift more than the weight limit indicated.
BEFORE attempting to transfer, the patient must be assessed by a qualified
professional.
This mobile patient lift must be used by a caregiver with proper training to work with the
patient to be transferred. This patient lift should never be used by a patient on their
own.
ONLY trained and qualified caregivers should transfer a patient. DO NOT attempt to use
the lift if you have not been properly trained to do so.
ALWAYS be prepared before attempting to transfer a patient.
DO NOT use a sling that is not recommended for the lift.
NEVER use a damaged, torn or frayed sling.
ALWAYS place the sling around patient according to the instructions enclosed.
FOLLOW lifting procedures outlined in this manual.
USE all controls and safety features only according to the rules specified in this manual.
Never attempt to forc e a control or button on the lift.
DO NOT store the lift in a shower, bath or other area with high humidity.
IMPORTANT: keep all components of the lift clean and dry, and have electrical and
mechanical safety checkpoints done as instructed in the Maintenance section of this
manual.
Replace any precautionary or instruction labels that cannot be easily read.
Do not attempt to manoeuvre the lift by pushing on the mast, motor shaft, boom or
patient.
ALWAYS manoeuvre the lift with the handles provided.
DO NOT push a loaded lift at speeds which exceed a slow walking pace (3 km/hour or
0.8 meter/second).

live equipment can electrocute a patient. If the lift or charger has any exposed or
damaged wires, contact y our local dealer immediately.
DO NOT splash or expose electric parts of the device to water or moisture.
CHECK nameplate for voltage and cycle requirements. These requirements differ by

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly Instructions for Ministand Lift
There are three different models of Ministand lift :
With legs activated by a shifter (A).
With legs activated by a pedal (B).
With electrical legs (activated by the control box) (C).
The assembly instructions remain the same for all lifts unless specified otherwise.
1. Remove all parts from carton and inner boxes, make sure all components are
present (see checklist on the main box sticker ). Check for any shipping
damage. Do not discard carton or packing material until you are completely
satisfied there is no damage to the lift.
With shifter
models only

10
2. Remove the securing bolts
on the base mast post.
Slide mast over the post
and secure with the two
bolts and lock washers.
3. For power base shifter
only : Unpack the actuator
from the mast prior to
fixing it to the floor lift.
Actuato r wire must be
oriented upward and its
label must be visible.
Make sure to fix both ends
properly to the mast
bracket and the power
base shifter. Both cotter
pins must be properly
installed and secured.
4. Install boom assembly into
position at the top of the
mast and secure it with the
shoulder bolt, the two sling
sleaves and lock nut.
Tighten securely.

11
5. Install the top extremity of the actuator
and fix it to the boom bracket with the
clevis pin assembly.
6. Insert the knee support union into th e
mast bracket and adjust with the knob
place below the bracket. Insert the
knee pad on the knee support union
and adjust for proper height with the
knob placed behind the knee pad.
7. Clip the footplate on the base.

12
8. Insert the shifter arm onto the
shifter plate assembly (for
model s with shifter arm only).
9. Place batteries into the control
box.

13
ADJUSTING THE WIDTH OF THE LEGS
The base of the lift can be set with the legs opened or closed. A djustments of the base
varied according to the model:
Shifter base: The adjustments are made by changing the position of the shifter:
Disengage the shifter plate by pulling the shifter arm then push it to the left will
close the legs. Pushing the shifter arm to the right will open the legs (Fig.1) .
Pedal base : The adjustments are made by changing the position of the pedal .
Press down the left side of the pedal will close the legs. Press down the right
side of the pedal will open the legs (Fig. 2).
Power base : The adjustments are made by using the control buttons OPEN and
CLOSE on the control box or on the hand control (Fig. 3).
Since the residents centre of gravity is positioned over the centre of the chassis, in most
situations the resident can be comfortably transported with the base closed. Ke eping
the resident at the lowest point within the base, lowers the centre of gravity, increasing
resident security. The residents lateral movement is also reduced by the design of the
arms .
