to fit the user, type of disability, size, weight and
type of transfer.

between lifter, suspension and body
support unit, then the lowest maxi-
mum load shall always be used
It is important that the sling has been tested with
the individual user and for the intended lifting
situation. Make a decision on whether one or
more assistants are required.
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. You as the assis-
tant are responsible for the safety of the user.
Molift slings shall only be used to
lift persons. Never use the sling to
lift or move objects of any kind.
The sling should not be stored in
direct sunlight.

sling
Make sure the sling suitable for the lift/
suspension to be used.

sonal injury. Destroy and discard
