incorrectly. Always engage
brakes during transfers and standing.
Use the hand crank to adjust
stander height.
The Rifton stander system can be configured for prone or supine use. Review
the available components to determine which your stander can be used for.
Additional components can be obtained from www.rifton.com.
Straps have color coded tags. Use components with GREEN tags for supine
positioning, and components with BLUE tags for prone positioning.
To avoid falls or strangulation, always ensure the correct straps and supports are
used in each configuration. The infographic to the left shows the minimum straps
and supports required for safe positioning in prone and supine standing.

Medial/Lateral thigh supports
Trunk laterals
All straps
Multi-Position Stander ONLY– Switching between PRONE and SUPINE
Mount the medial/lateral thigh
supports on the inside for medial
support, or on the outside for lateral
support. Adjust the width using the
white trigger (A). The mounting bracket
is off-center, so the pad has two
possible height positions. Swap pads to
change height position.
Attach the laterals at the level of
either the trunk or pelvis. Adjust width
using trigger (B) on the side of body
support. Adjust height by loosening
the knob (C) on the outside and
moving the pad up or down. The pads
swing away for transfers using the
white button (D).
To attach straps to the body support,
insert the tip of the clip into the correct
socket behind the body support and
pull forward until it clicks. Pull the
clip back and away from the pad to
remove the strap.
