Important
Lifting and transferring a patient always involves a degree
of risk. Study the instruction guides for both lift systems
and accessories carefully. A complete understanding of the
contents of instructions is essential. Only trained personnel
should use the equipment.
Make certain that the lift accessories are appropriate for the
lift you are using and for the lifting situation. Exercise caution
and care when using lift equipment and accessories.
As a caregiver, you are responsible for the patient’s safety.
You must be well informed of the patient’s condition and
ability to manage the lifting situation.
Inspect the sling regularly, especially after laundering.
Check carefully for wear and damage to seams, fabric,
straps and strap loops. Never use damaged accessories!
When in doubt, contact the manufacturer or supplier.
Class I medical-technical product
Maximum loads
Different maximum allowable loads may apply to different products on the assembled lift system: rail system, lift unit, slingbar,
sling and other accessories. For the total lift system, the lowest maximum allowable load indicated for the respective products
on the system applies. For Liko UltraSling to be able to carry a weight of 500 kg (1100 lbs.), both the lift unit and slingbar must
be approved for this maximum load.
Applying UltraSling in the sitting position:
1. Place the sling behind the patient’s back, with the label facing out-
ward and upward. With the palm of your hand, guide the lower edge
of the sling down to the patient’s tailbone.*
2. Place the leg supports alongside the outside of each thigh, so that
the fabric of the lower edge of the sling is fully extended.
3. Push the leg supports under the patient’s legs, with the leg support
loops placed under the fabric.* When the leg support fabric reaches
the inside of the thighs, pull out the leg support loops. Pull both the
inner and outer leg support loops until they have the same length.
4. Connect the strap loops to the slingbar. The upper strap loops are
hooked to the wide slingbar and the leg support loops are hooked to
the narrower slingbar.
5. Lift the patient.
*If problems arise during this type of application, it may be necessary
to use Lift strap XL to be able to position the sling. Contact Liko for
more information.
For application of UltraSling in the horizontal position, we recommend
Liko RepoSheet™ Original to avoid the neccesity of log rolling the patient.
