Fit the shoulder strap clips to the spreader bar. As
before when securing the clips there should be a click
sound to conrm the clip is located correctly. Once you
are happy that the sling is tted correctly you can now
commence the transfer.

you may need to re-adjust the position of the sling
for the patients comfort. Lower the patient back
onto the chair/bed to make any adjustments before
continuing the transfer.
Ensure the leg sections are brought together by
threading the leg paddle through the modesty strap.
This gives a closed leg position.
Once the sling has been tted correctly to your patient,
attach the loop straps to the spreader bar of the lift.
Color coding on the pick up loops are provided for ease
of reference and position. You can now commence the
transfer.

General Instructions: Warning
Do not attempt to transfer the patient until
all appropriate sling attachments are secured to
the lift spreader bar and you are satised that the
sling is the correct style, size and t for the patient.
Correct sizing of a sling is important as a sling that is
too large could cause the patient to slip through the
aperture.
While every attempt is made to instruct a safe move
you must conform to the current moving and handling
procedures/regulations. If in any doubt, consult your
Moving and Handling Advisor.
Service Label & Sling Checks:
All products should be checked each time they are
used for any signs of deterioration.
The service label is a visual guide to the product’s
check. Please conduct a thorough sling check in line
with current safety requirements in your country.
If in doubt consult your distributor for current sling
checking protocols.
A risk assessment must be carried out to ensure
that the correct size and style of sling has been
met before use.
Pre-use sling check list:
• braiding/straps for deterioration and fraying
• material for holes/snagging
• compatibility with the lift
• safe working load of both the lift and sling/
product (if applicable)
• label is legible
Remove from use immediately if there are any signs
of deterioration to the sling or straps or the label
is illegible.

• Follow laundry temperatures for washing and drying
detailed on the product label.
• Always ensure that all Hook & Loop fastenings are
fully closed before washing.

Product Care:
• Ensure that any Hook & Loop fastenings are closed
