professionals to lift and transfer a person in a homecare, assisted-living or
hospital environment. Transfer must be performed by a qualified operator as

cause failure of a part and lead to a patient fall.
The expected life for other parts such as slings, batteries, fuses, straps, and
cords is dependent upon the proper care and use of the individual items. The
items must be maintained as described in their accompanying documentation
and in the Maintenance section in this manual.
Using This Manual
To ensure safe operation of the lift, read this entire manual carefully, especially
the Safety Instructions, before installing, using or maintaining the lift. Failure to
