Depending on the rescue situation the various lifting bridles can be used.
Only the intended anchor points may be used.
Always use the central anchor point
as a safeguard for the rescuer.
•If the original application situation changes - the suitability of the selected lifting
bridle must be checked or possibly exchanged for another variant.
•Depending on the expected rescue situation, there are different bridles.
•The most universal rescue possibilities are obtained only by using the balance
lifting bridle - (adjustment between vertical / horizontal is possible under load)
You will find an overview of the various lifting bridles under point 2.2.
After an extended period of time in direct sunshine, more than 200 hours, the RollUP
must not be used for lifting of patients.

3Tests before commissioning - by the user
3.1 Tests before use
The RollUP must be checked for completeness and ready for use before and after each
use. A defective or objected RollUP is no longer permitted for use and is to be marked
accordingly with a blocking certificate. The device must be handed over immediately to
the responsible test personnel.
Devices that have been blocked must not be used;
they must be sent for repair immediately.
It is recommended that the RollUp be stuck or sealed in the transport bag after use and
testing. Depending on the company's internal regulations, a re-examination before use
may possibly be omitted.
Examinations after use
•After completion of the deployment, the RollUP is, as required, to be cleaned
•It must be checked for externally recognizable damage.
•Defective equipment must be returned to the manufacturer for repairs, stating the
complaint.

the person during transport is ensured. (Additional securing of the patient in the
rollup)
•In the case of obvious, recognizable damage, the RollUp must not be used and
must be returned immediately to the inspection.

dismantled. Place the RollUP flat. Start rolling up at the head of the head. Firmly roll up and
