4.3 Operating the product
NOTE!
It is important that you are familiar with the use of the hoist and its functions, and that it
works properly. So for the best possible safety, all users of the hoist must read this user
manual before using the hoist.
For the All-in-One you can use any of Ropox Domino slings.
4.3.1 Operating instructions
-Check that the emergency stop has been released. If not, turn the button clockwise until release.
-The hoist is operated by means of the hand control unit. The two upper buttons control the lifting/lowering
movement, whereas the two lower buttons control the leg spreading facility. It is not possible to use two
functions simultaneously.
-Check that the sling provided is correct for the lifting operation to be performed. This applies to size as well
as shape. Further information about the choice of slings will be found in ”Domino Slings User manual”.
-The battery should be recharged regularly, to ensure that the hoist is always available (e.g. every night).
4.3.2 Emergency situation
Emergency stop and emergency lowering (electrical and mechanical) should be used in emergencies only.
Should it be necessary to activate the emergency functions, contact the distributor before using the hoist again.
4.4Recharging the battery
-The battery must be recharged after approx. 60 lifting operations –i.e. at 50% battery capacity. In case of
continued use you will hear an acoustic signal. The battery can still be used, but it will affect is recharging
capability.
-We recommend charging as soon as the hoist is not being used for a longer period of time, e.g. every night.
The battery cannot be over-charged and it is only ”healthy” for the battery to be recharged often as it
increases the battery life.
-Charging is made directly in the control unit by means of the mains cable provided. Insert the cable into the
wall outlet and the control unit, see drawing page 12, and switch on power. The hoist cannot be used when
connected to mains voltage.
-A green light on the control unit indicates connection to mains voltage. A yellow light indicates that the
battery is being recharged.
-When the battery has been fully charged, the yellow light will be out.
-Full recharging takes 4-5 hours.
-If charging is made via a wall-mounted charging station (optional) a battery may be constantly charged in
the station. The batteries may be easily switched by means of the snap system on top of the battery box.
NOTE!
In case of erroneous operation of the hand control unit (e.g. too quick change of
direction) the hoist does not react. Let go of the push button –wait a few seconds and
press again.
Warning!
The product should always be able to travel the full range of actuation without colliding
with objects. Failing to do so will compromise the product stability.
Special care should be taken in ensuring that no children or adults are sited under the
product as severer injury from entrapment may occur.

TF 200.01.0016_ENG

4.5Safety function, liftingmotor
The lifting motor is provided with a safety function, splejn, against jamming. If the lifting arm meets with
resistance during lowering, the movement of the arm will stop automatically. Thus, a person cannot get
jammed between the lifting arm and the bed.
4.6Safety function, control unit
-protective motor switch for lifting and leg spreading, protecting against overloading
-short-circuit protection
-acoustic signal sounding when the batteries need charging
-electrical emergency lowering if the hand control unit does not work
-built-in charger
Emergency stop
If the hoist is to be stopped owing to an emergency –press the red button on the control unit. When the
button has been depressed the electrical functions of the hoist cannot be activated and the battery indicator
has been switched off.
4.7Emergency lowering
If the hoist is to be lowered and the hand control unit does not work, there are two possible solutions:
-The electrical emergency lowering of the control unit (marked emergency), see drawing page 21. Press
with a ball pencil or the like and the person will be lowered slowly.
-The mechanical emergency lowering of the lifting motor. Pull up the red handle, see drawing.
NOTE!
Make sure that the plug from the battery is correctly inserted in the control box, if the plug
have been pulled out, before using the lift again.
WARNING!
Owing to the safety function on the motor the lifting arm and spreader bar may fall freely
to the spindle of the motor.
Therefore make sure that the lifting arm does not ”hang”, that is
has always been pressed down to ensure that it rests on the
spindle of the motor before and after all lifting operations. This
is important as otherwise an injury may result if the lifting arm
”falls” down.

4.8Brakes
The hoist may be braked on
the two large rear wheels.
Press down the rear part of the
brake with the foot to brake the
hoist. Release the brake by
pressing the front part of the
brake with the foot.
NOTE!
Never brake the hoist during lifting except when used in stand-up mode.

Release
The lifting motor has a mechanical
emergency lowering facility. To release
it, pull the red handle.

4.9 Transfer –walking trainer
•Before lifting a person it is important to be familiar with the walking trainer and that it works satisfactorily.
•Also, it is important to choose the right size of sling for the lifting operation to be performed. Further
information about the use of slings will be found in the ”Walking Trainer Manual for Slings”.
•We recommend that the walking training take place on a horizontal surface. However, the walking trainer
may be used on surfaces with gradients up to 5°.
•Never lift a person higher than necessary.
•Always observe the maximum load of the hoist.
4.9.1 Lifting from chair/wheelchair
•Place the sling around the client sitting in the chair/wheelchair. Close the body belt and tighten it so that it
is still comfortable.
•Place the leg straps between the thighs and pull the lifting straps placed in front of the shoulders through
the black loops of the leg straps. Make sure that the four grey lifting straps are in the same height before
attaching them to the spreader bar.
•Increase the width between the legs of the hoist and move it towards the client.
•Place the feet of the client on the floor.
•Move the hoist so close to the client as possible.
•Make sure that the spreader bar is in the lower position.
•Place the lifting straps of the sling correctly in the hooks of the spreader bar. Check that all straps have
been fitted correctly.
•Lift the client a few centimetres above the seat - STOP –and make sure that the sling is placed correctly.
•When the client is comfortable, lift him/her from the chair to standing position.
•Slowly pull the hoist away from the chair - STOP –adjust the sling and lifting height until the client is
standing comfortably.
•You may now start walking training.
Before lifting a client, try the hoist yourself.
Risk assessment shall be carried out to ensure that the correct size, type and shape of
slings is being used for the patient.
NOTE!
The wheelchair must be braked during transfer to and from the chair.

TF 200.01.0016_ENG
18
4.9.2 Using the walking trainer
•The carer may walk in front of or beside the
walking trainer, instructing or supporting
the client.
•Raising or lowering the sling frame will
relieve the client depending on the phase
of walking training.
•Use the hand support to begin with in order
to give the client something to hold on to
and to use for pushing/steering.
•During the last phase of the walking training the
client may use the hand support only without the
support of the sling.
•The steering devices of the two front wheels
contribute to steering the walking trainer, e.g. when
persons with hemiplegia start walking training.
4.9.2 Placing in chair/wheelchair
To place a person in a chair/wheelchair, do the procedures on the opposite side in reverse order:
•Increase the width between the legs of the walking trainer and move it to the chair.
•Make sure that the client is positioned correctly above the chair and lower the hoist slowly.
•Check that the client is positioned correctly during the entire operation.
•When assisting a client in getting back into the chair, lower the client so that he/she just touches the chair.
•If the chair can be tilted a little backward it is easier to place the client correctly.
•If two assistants are present, one may press gently on the knees of the client.
