Safety informaon
A Liko™ li system is a combinaon of products. Each product has its own maximum load marking. The lowest specied
maximum load of the products that comprises the system sets the maximum load for the complete li system.
The li system can contain following products; li rails, a li motor, a sling bar, a sling or other recommended accessories.
Idenfy the maximum load for the complete li system by reading the maximum load marking on each product in the system.
Contact your Hill-Rom representave for support and advice.
Intended use
A SlingGuard™ sling bar is used as an aid in carrying out lis but does not come into contact with the paent, therefore we do
not go into dierent paent condions in the instricon for use. Surrounding (funconal) environment: Temp. +5 °C to +40 °C,
relave humidity 15% to 93% non-condensed. Barometric pressure range of 70 kPa to 106 kPa.
In the event of any queries regarding this product, contact your Hill-Rom representave.
For guidance and support in choosing the correct sling, visit www.hillrom.com or contact your Hill-Rom representave.
Note! Always read the instrucon for use that comes with Liko´s dierent sling models for correct and safe use of the sling.
The total maximum load for a li system is always determined by the product in the system with the lowest
specied maximum load.
Read and understand the Instrucon for use in its enrety before using the product.
Use of the product without a full understanding of the contents is subject to risk.
Read the instrucon for use for both the paent li and liing accessories before use. Liing and
transferring a person always involves a certain level of risk. It is important to completely understand the
contents of the instrucon for use. The equipment should only be used by trained personnel. Contact your
Hill-Rom representave in the event of any uncertaines or quesons.

SlingGuard™ 450 sling bar - Aach the sling suspension loops to the sling bar hooks.
Note! For correct and safe use of a sling, always study the instrucon for use for the selected sling before liing.
Aach liing accessories correctly so that the sling bar hangs level and all sling bar hooks take all the
weight when liing!
Before liing always ensure that the sling’s strap loops are correctly connected to the sling bar hooks
when the sling straps are stretched, but before the paent is lied from the underlying surface.
The sling strap loops should be aached to the sling bar hooks so that the sling bar latches safely prevent
involuntary unhooking of the strap loops.
