The EZ Lift is a battery powered
electric patient lift which, in most
cases, can be operated by one person.
Its primary function is to lift patients
from the bed, chair, toilet and fl oor.
An optional, built-in digital scale
displays the patient’s weight with the
touch of a button.
The sling is designed to be used
or removed with a minimum of
handling and lifting of the patient
and is convenient for use in toileting
patients. The sling does not have to
be left under most patients.
The conveniently designed removable
battery pack makes bringing a lift
to a charger obsolete. The EZ Lift
comes with two battery packs and
a compact remote charging unit for
uninterrupted use.

ACCESSORIES
DELUXE SLING
The padded legs of the Deluxe
Sling offer support and comfort to
the patient while being lifted and
transferred.
DELUXE MESH SLING
The Deluxe Mesh Sling is de-
signed specifi cally for bathing
patients. It has very low moisture
absorption and a better “hold” on
wet skin. The Mesh Sling may
also be used for regular patient
transfers.
MULTI-PURPOSE SLING
The Multi-Purpose Sling is used
primarily for amputees, patients
with large thighs, or patients with
delicate skin.
EZ LIFT SLINGS are designed
to maximize the comfort and
security of patients during trans-
fers. EZ Slings are made in a
wide assortment of sizes and will
support patients weighing up to
1000 lbs.; however, users must
only lift up to the weight capacity
limits of their EZ Lift. As patients
do vary in size, shape, weight and
temperament, these conditions
must be taken into consideration
when deciding which size of the
EZ Sling is most suitable for their
needs. The EZ Slings are con-
structed of durable and washable
100% synthetic fabrics. There are
three reinforced handles in the
back for positioning the patient,
and a large opening for toileting
and access to the perineal area.
DELUXE HEAD SUPPORT
SLING
The Deluxe Head Support Sling
is designed with the addition of
a head support, providing extra
support for patients with weak or
poor head control.

The EZ Lift requires a minimum of servicing to keep it in good working order. Nevertheless, it is important
that certain basic checks be periodically made by maintenance staff to ensure on-going safety throughout the
life of the device.
The manufacturer suggests that the following components and operating points be scheduled for inspection
at intervals not greater than one month. Any detected deficiency must be rectified before the lift is put
back into service.
1. Check wear of hanger assembly bushing by moving hanger assembly up and down.
If hanger assembly moves up and down and the thickness of 2 quarters can be inserted
between hanger assembly and load cell the hanger assembly needs to be replaced.
2. Check all bolts to ensure they are tight.
3. Check boom to hanger assembly pivot bolt, peel rubber back to assure
nut is tight and cotter pin is in place. Check boom to mast pivot bolt
by removing plastic cap to assure nut is tight and cotter pin is in place.
If plastic cap is missing order replacement.
4. Check the point where sling hanger and hanger spreader bar meet. If excessively worn,
replace the bushings immediately. The hanger spreader and sling hanger wear points
need to be checked for wear. If hooks appear worn, call EZ Way for instructions.
5. Check mounting bolts of actuator top and bottom. Pay particular
attention to top bolt hole for elongation.

Check actuator for the following.
1. Inspect the plastic housing for any dents or cracks.
2. Inspect the cables to see if they have been cut or pinched.
3. See if the actuator appears deflected when fully extended at full load.
4. Verify that the mounting points do not have any cracks or other defects.
5. Apply a heavy grease to actuator mounting pins as needed.
6. Verify that the inner or outer tubes do not have any dents, dings,
or large scratches in them.
Contact EZ Way’s Service Department if the actuator shows any signs
of the issues listed above.
6. At six month intervals, attach a load equivalent to the rated capacity of the lift to the unit. Raise and
lower the load with the lift. Listen for any unusual noises while operating the unit. With the test load
applied to the lift, check all structural welds for any signs of stress or fatigue cracks. If any unusual noises
or cracks are found, stop using the lift and call the EZ Way Service Department immediately!
7. Test the Emergency Stop Switch. If the switch does not stop the lift when activated, call the EZ Way
Service Department immediately!
8. Perform a functional test of the emergency lowering feature of the lift actuator if it is so equipped.
9. Perform a functional test of the anti-pinch feature of the lift actuator. This feature turns the actuator off
when lowering the lift arm if an obstruction is encountered.
10. Check all the wheels and brakes to make sure they are functioning properly. Hair that gets picked up and
wrapped in between wheels should be cleaned out so that the lift will roll easily.
11. Do a visual check for any damaged, missing or loose parts. Repair as necessary.
12. Check the entire sling for damage or wear, including the loops and stitching. If damage or wear is
present, discard the sling and order a new one. It is recommended that slings be replaced after one
year or if the sling shows any sign of damage or wear.
13. When cleaning the lift, do not spray any liquid cleaners directly onto the front panel graphics. To clean,
use a glass cleaner such as Windex, dampen a cloth and wipe the panel.
**IMPORTANT NOTICE**
The SKF Magnetic Runner Actuator used on this unit should be replaced after 4 years or 20,000 double
strokes (up and down) per the original manufacturer.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that regular maintenance inspection is conducted on this
device by competent staff.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!!!!
This product is designed and manufactured to the highest possible performance specifications. It is constructed of
high quality, durable, 100% synthetic fabrics. It has been individually inspected before shipping to ensure the safety of
the product. However, water washing temperature, detergents and disinfectants, patient incontinence, frequency of
use, types and weights of patients, etc., all have an impact on the life expectancy of each product. Because of these
factors, the continued integrity of the product is not guaranteed. The institution or private user must therefore examine
the product to ensure its integrity before each use.
