Before liing, keep the following points in mind:
• A responsible person within your organizaon should decide on a case-by-case basis whether one or more caregivers are
needed.
• Ensure that the sling selected meets the paent’s needs with reference to model, size, fabric and design.
• For safety and hygiene reasons, use individual slings.
• Plan the liing operaon so that it can be done as safely and smoothly as possible
• Although Liko’s sling bars are equipped with latches, special cauon must be exercised. Before the paent is lied from the
underlying surface, but aer the straps have been fully extended, make sure the straps are properly connected to the sling
bar hooks.
• The height to which the lift should proceed varies from person to person.
• Never leave a paent unaended during a liing situaon.
• Make sure that the wheels on the wheelchair, bed, gurney, etc., are locked during the liing/transfer operaon.
• Always work ergonomically. Use the paent’s ability to acvely parcipate in the operaons.
• When the sling is not being used, do not place in direct sun light.
Incorrect aachment of sling to slingbar may cause severe injury to the paent.
