USER MANUAL
MiniLift160 Classic is a mobile sit-to-stand lift which has been developed to, as gently as possible, assist the user when
rising from a sitting to a standing position. When MiniLift160 Classic is combined with the appropriate lifting accessories,
the user gets support under the feet, for the front of the lower legs and behind the back, which provides for a safe and
secure
sit-to-stand procedure. The construction safely moves the user forwards and upwards in a natural movement pattern
and, at the same time, the leg muscles and balance is exercised.
