WARNING: The maximum user weight must not be

greater than the board allows. Ensure both ends of
the board sufficiently overlap the transfer surfaces.
NRS Healthcare recommend a minimum of 150mm.
DO NOT: Attempt to use multiple boards for a single
transfer.
Transfer surfaces should be as level as possible,
avoid slopes.
4. UNPACKING
Remove the packaging and check all parts carefully.
Contact your supplier immediately if parts are
missing or damaged and do not try and assemble.
5. IN USE
Position the transfer surfaces next to each other, at
right angles as close as possible.
Figure 1: M01175 in use example
Place the transfer board over the gap between
the two surfaces (refer to figure 1). Ensure it is
sufficiently supported on both sides, a minimum of
150mm overlap.
The user can now use the board to manoeuvre from
one surface to the other.
Note: Take care to ensure fingers do not become
trapped under the board.
Where possible the user should push down with
their hands during transfer to lift themselves slightly
to avoid rubbing on the board. This is particularly
important where there is a loss of sensation.
Assistance from a carer may be required in cases of
severe limitation.
