WARNING
Invacare does NOT recommend locking of the rear
casters of the patient lift when lifting an
individual. Doing so could cause the lift to tip and
endanger the patient and attendants. Invacare
DOES recommend that the rear casters be left un-
locked during lifting procedures to allow the patient
lift to stabilize itself when the patient is initially lift-
ing from a chair, bed or any stationary object.
There are two (2) controls on the pump assembly:
1. The control valve
2. The pump handle
RAISING THE LIFT. The control valve MUST be in
the CLOSED position (control valve positioned towards
pump handle) to move the pump handle up and down
to elevate the boom and the patient.
WARNING
If the shifter handle is NOT vertical, the lock pin
is NOT seated in the socket assembly. DO NOT
use the patient lift until lock pin is properly seated
and LOCKED in place or injury and/or damage
may occur.
OPERATION
OPERATION (Cont.)
LOWERING THE LIFT. The control handle MUST be
in the OPEN position (control valve positioned away
from pump handle) to lower the boom and the patient.
The rate of descent can be controlled by varying the
amount that the control valve is opened.
NOTE: A safety gate is part of the hydraulic
system that maintains a SLOW constant descent
of the boom regardless of how far the control valve
is opened.
