Safety devices
Molift Smart 150 is equipped with several safety
devices, which are intended to prevent damage to
personnel and equipment in the case of incorrect
use.
The hoist has an overload sensor preventing the
hoist to be operated if the load exceeds SWL.
The lifting arm is hinged to prevent the arm
and sling bar from squeezing the user. The
actuator will not produce any force when moving
downwards.
The legs are folded together during transport to
make the hoist as small as possible. When assem-
bling the hoist, the legs must be opened to work-
ing position. The lifting column will not fix into
the bracket if the legs are not adjusted beyond
transport position - a safety feature ensures this.
The electronics are disabled if overheated. Wait
until the hoist has cooled down before using it
again.
Push / Pull handles
Use the pull handles to move the hoist.
Do not push or pull the user,
lifting arm or actuator.
This may cause instability and
hoist may tip over.
The hoist shall only be used for movement
over short distances. It is not a replacement
for wheelchair or similar.
Brakes
Rear castors are equipped with brakes. Step on
pedal to lock brakes. Flip up to unlock.
Emergency Stop / Emergency lowering
Emergency stop
The emergency stop shuts off the power when
pushed in. Turn clockwise to reset (OK to operate
when the green ring is visible).
Electrical emergency lowering
Push and hold button for electrical emergency
lowering to lower lifting arm. The electrical emer-
gency lowering function does not work when the
emergency stop is activated.
Manual emergency lowering
Pull handle on the actuator upwards to start
emergency lowering, and the lifting arm moves
downwards when loaded. The lowering will
increase in speed the higher the handle is pulled.
Release the handle gently. Releasing the handle
too quickly may cause person injury or damage to
the hoist.
The manual emergency lowering function on the
actuator should only be used when the electrical
emergency lowering does not work.

Transfer
Plan the lifting operation in advance to ensure that
it is as safe and smooth as possible. Remember
to work ergonomically. Assess the risks and take
notes. The assistant is responsible for the safety of
the user.
Molift Smart 150 has a 4-point sling bar for
different types of transfers; sitting, recumbent or
ambulating.
Using slings
It is important that the sling has been tested with
the individual user and for the intended lifting
situation.
Read user manual for the sling
prior to use.
Do not to use damaged or badly
worn slings.
Slings made by other manufacturers
We recommend only using Molift slings. Etac shall
not be liable for faults or accidents that can occur
when using slings made by other manufacturers.
Lifting and lowering
When moving the user, stand to the side of the
person you are lifting. Make sure that arms and
legs do not obstruct the seat, bed, etc. Keep eye
contact with the user to help them feel safe.
The 4-point sling bar must always be positioned
across the user, to prevent the user from uninten-
tionally sliding out of the sling.
The sling bars hook design prevents sling to be
inadvertently detached when mounted correct.
1. Check that the sling is correctly fitted around
the user and that the strap loops are correctly
fitted to the sling bar hooks.
2. Stretch the sling straps without lifting the
user. Ensure that all four loops of the sling are
securely fastened to avoid the user slipping or
falling.
3. Lift user, and perform transfer.

14
Molift Smart 150 | BM09299 Rev C | www.etac.com
Transfer
Try to position the user as low as possible (prefer-
ably resting the feet on the chassis) when transfer-
ring the hoist with a suspended user. In this way
the centre of gravity will be low and reduce the
risk of instability.
Never lift the user higher than
necessary to carry out a lift.
Remember that wheels on a mobile
lift must NOT be locked.
Never leave a user unattended in a
lifting situation.
Be careful during movement, the suspended user
may swing during turns, stops and starts. Be
careful when manoeuvring close to furniture to
prevent the suspended user from colliding with
these objects.
The hoist shall not be used to lift or
move users on sloping surfaces
Avoid deep pile carpets, high thresholds, uneven
surfaces or other obstacles that may block the cas-
tors. The hoist may become unstable if forced over
such obstacles increasing the risk of tipping over.
Lowering into sitting
When transferring the user into sitting, the follow-
ing techniques can be used when lowering the
user as far back into the seat as possible:
A Position the user with the help of the push
handle
B Push gently on the user’s knees
C Tilt the seat backwards
User must be facing hoist when
lifting or lowering from or into a
chair.
