Description
The Human Care Altair overhead lift is a lightweight portable lift with a discreet and modern design. Its portability ensures that asset investment is
greatly reduced as the same lift easily can be used in multiple rooms. The Altair features an advanced technology platform that allows tracking of lift
usage and visualization of collected data. Altair features a unique telescoping hanger bar that offers different widths in one product to fit any patient and
resulting in a comfortable sitting position. The lift is available in three weight capacities, 150kg, 220kg and 300kg, and can be used with either a 2, 3 or
4-point suspension.

The telescopic hanger bar
o
Important! Do not hold on
to the telescopic bar or the
hooks when performing a lift.
The hooks on the telescopic bar have three adjustable positions (40, 50 and 60 cm). To change position, turn the hooks
1/4 turn while pushing or pulling the hooks to the desired position. The hooks will automatically fall into place in the posi-
tion, and so it is necessary to repeat the turn (1/4 turn) when passing the middle position (position 2) (See fig).
