1. Indications/Contraindications for Use
1.1 Intended Use
This Raizer is designed primarily for use in private homes. If you intend to use the Raizer in other settings, you should contact our dealer for
information about service.
It is important to read this manual before using the Raizer.
Never use the Raizer to lift a person if you suspect that the person has been hurt in a way that the lifting procedure may deteriorate the
person’s well-being.
The Raizer is a mobile lifting chair which helps a lying person up to an almost standing position in a few minutes. The Raizer can be
operated by only a single person.
To operate the lifting chair, the Raizer must be assembled around the fallen person. It can then be operated using the crank handle. The
fallen person can be raised to a sitting or almost standing position ready for relocation.
The Raizer should only be used to bring a person lying on the oor to a sitting or almost standing position if the person is unable to do so
by him-/herself. The person may require relocation from this position. A hygiene cover or a form of textile must be applied to the seat if the
person to be lifted is NOT wearing clothes on areas in direct contact with the Raizer.
Movable parts: Be careful not to get crushed. The user manual
must be read carefully prior to use. Service inspections must
always be undertaken by a qualied service technician. The
owner of the device is obliged to maintain it according to the
maintenance guide in section 9. It is strictly forbidden to modify
the product as this may endanger people’s personal safety.
The Raizer’s parts may be hot or cold to touch in case they have
been stored in the baggage compartment of a car or in direct
sunlight. Please consider this before using the device.
Lifting capacity: Max. 150 kg (330.7 lbs)
Do not push or transport the lifting chair while the person is
sitting in it. The Raizer is not designed for transport of persons.
Do not stand on the lifting chair. The Raizer is not designed for
transport of persons.
Never ush the lifting chair with water and never immerse it in
water. General cleaning may only be done using a well-wrung
cloth or sponge
Read the user manual thoroughly before using the lifting chair

2. Safety Instructions
2.1 Avoid Personal Injury
Even though the Raizer comes tted with various safety features, always use caution if persons or animals are close by, as this
may unintendedly lead to the risk of crushing.
Never allow children to play with the Raizer.
The Raizer’s parts may be hot or cold to touch in case they have been stored in the baggage compartment of a car or in direct
sunlight. Please consider this before using the device.
2.2 Overload
In order to avoid damage to the device in the event of overload (max. 150 kg/330 lbs), the Raizer is tted with a torque limiter which when
triggered halts the lifting chair. In the event of overload, the crank handle will turn without lifting the chair.
If the Raizer has been heavily overloaded and the overload protection has been activated (the crank handle will rotate without engaging), the
lifting capacity of the Raizer may be slightly reduced for up to one hour after the occurrence.
2.3 Personal safety
• To avoid personal injury, it is NOT permitted to use the lifting chair when someone or something is at risk of being injured by crushing,
cutting, falling, slipping, or similar.
• It is important to ensure that the chair can move without putting anyone or anything at risk.
• Be extra careful when there are children and physically or mentally challenged people on or near the chair, as these groups cannot
always be expected to be able to foresee the possible consequences of its movements.
• Never load more on the chair than the 150 kg/330 lbs stated on the loading sign as the maximum load.
2.4 Handling
The Raizer can be transported in the provided packing. The seat can be carried in the turquoise handle. Backrests and legs can be
transported separately in the provided packing.
If the Raizer has been purchased with extra storage facilities and handling equipment, please see the guide supplied with the equipment in
question.
Do not subject the Raizer to severe knocks or blows as this can affect product functionality.
NEVER use a high-pressure jet to rinse the chair.
Do NOT immerse the Raizer in water, as this can damage the product.
3. Disposal
It is the duty of the owner to dispose of the product in accordance with the current national, state and local regulations applicable at the
time.

5. Prior to Use
IMPORTANT: Never use the Raizer to lift a person if you suspect that the person has been hurt in a way that the lift may deteriorate
the person’s well-being. Always check that the Raizer has no defects before using it.
ALWAYS make sure to place the lifting chair in a horizontal position leaving it ready for the next lift.
A hygiene cover or a form of textile must be applied to the seat if the person to be lifted is NOT wearing clothes on areas in direct
contact with the Raizer.
If the product is in any way visibly defective, do not use it. It cannot be considered safe to use or live up to normal usage standard,
including quality, condition, and durability. This means that Liftup cannot be held responsible for any improper usage or for what
may be a consequence of the inappropriate application of the product.
6. Functionality
The Raizer is a mobile lifting chair which raises a fallen person up to an almost standing position in a few minutes. It can be operated by a
single helper.
To operate the lifting chair, the Raizer must be assembled around the fallen person. It can then be operated using the crank handle. The
fallen person can be raised to a sitting or almost standing position ready for relocation.
The crank handle can operate from both sides of the Raizer. Follow the direction of the arrow to lift a person.
Turn the handle in the opposite direction when driving down the Raizer to store it away.
7. Assembly & Operation
In addition to this user manual, enclosed with your Raizer, you will nd a quick guide with easy-to-read
directions.
7.1 Positioning the Seat
1. The fallen person must be lying on her/his back. You may place a pillow under the person’s head for
better comfort.
2. Place the seat on the oor next to the lying person.
3. Lift the thighs to an angle.

RAIZER M
DHG-HEALTHCARE.COM8
NOTE: The green rubber stripes must be turned against the thighs and buttocks.
7.2 Mounting the Seat Belts
If the seat belt has not already been tted on the backrest, mount it by pushing the tting downwards over
the backrest prole with a sliding movement. The tting can be mounted from both ends (see illustrations).
Additional belts can be supplied upon request (optional equipment). Only use the Raizer when the seat belt
is fastened around the lying person.
7.3 Mounting the Backrests
NOTE: The 2 backrests are identical and may be tted in any sequence.
Backrests in the seat
Lift the person carefully by the shoulder, with a light push to the elbow. The back-rest is clicked into
position with a sliding movement. A distinct click will be heard when the backrest is tted correctly.
The red warning symbol must be com-pletely hidden in the slot when the back-rest is mounted correctly.
7.4 Mounting the Legs
NOTE: The 4 legs are identical and may be tted in any sequence.
Legs in the swivel joint
Insert the leg carefully, until it clicks into place.
A distinct click will sound when the leg has been correctly tted.
Legs in the bottom of the seat
Insert the leg carefully, until it clicks into place.
A distinct click will sound when the leg has been correctly tted.
Repeat the procedure on the opposite side.
WARNING: The seat belt must always be xed during lifts. Never lead the seat belt under the rear
legs of the Raizer, as this may cause the person to be crushed.
(The seat belt clip, however, will break off before any personal damage).
7.5 Mounting the Crank Handle
The crank handle can be mounted from either side. Insert the crank handle from the side most convenient
for the helper.
7.6 Headrest
We recommend supporting the neck and head of the person to be lifted as it may be hard to keep the
head upright during the lift. In most cases, in connection with the Raizer M lifting chair, we recommend
using a headrest* as it relieves the helper from the effort of supporting the head of the fallen person when
carrying out the lift. The helper may also offer a supporting hand under the neck of the person during the
lifting process..
To apply the headrest, push it under the neck of the lying person so that it slides between the two
backrests.

*Supplementary equipment
7.7 Alerts prior to lifting
The person’s arms must be crossed over the chest and the legs together before initiating the lift. Run the
chair up once you have made sure that the person’s feet, arms, hands or other extremities will not be
endangered by the movements of the lifting chair.
7.8 Performing the lift
1. The Raizer is operated by means of the crank handle.
The crank handle can operate from both sides of the Raizer. Follow the direction of the arrow to lift a
person. Turn the handle in the opposite direction when driving down the Raizer to store it away.
2. Continue to lift until the person is sitting in an upright position, both feet at on the oor. Be sure to
release the seat belt before the person moves away from the Raizer.
The lifting chair may become unstable if it is driven too high up so that the front and back legs
come too close together (the distance between the wheels must be at least 55 cm/22 in).
Do NOT push or transport the lifting chair while the person is sitting in it. The wheels are not
designed for transport of persons.
Do NOT stand on the lifting chair
8. Disassembly
IMPORTANT: Run the Raizer down leaving it ready for the next lift.
Remove the backrests and legs by pulling them out.
Once the Raizer has been disassembled, store away all parts in the provided packing.

9. Maintenance
9.1 Cleaning
IMPORTANT: General cleaning may only be done using a well-wrung cloth or
sponge.
You can disinfect your Raizer by using ethanol-based disinfectants (70-85
v/v%. alcohol). NEVER use a high-pressure cleaner or running water, as this may
cause permanent damage to the lifting chair.
13.2 Service inspections
This Raizer is designed primarily for use in private homes. Using it in private homes, the Raizer will
not need to be serviced in its expected lifetime. However, we recommend an inspection and load test
prior to expiry of the warranty period (2 years), and subsequently every two years, especially in cases
where the Raizer is used frequently (several times a week), to ensure safe and unproblematic use.
10. Spare Parts & Accessories
IMPORTANT: It is important to use only original spare parts. Replacement of parts may only
be undertaken by a qualied service technician. The use of non-original spare parts may
void the right of complaint. Furthermore, product safety may be compromised, which may
pose a risk to personal safety.
