STAND UP LIFT
Introduction
ƽ WARNING
DO NOT attempt any transfer of a patient without approval of the patient's
physician, nurse, or medical assistant. Thoroughly read the instructions in this
owner's manual, observe a trained team of experts performing the lifting
procedures and then perform the entire lift procedure several times with proper
supervision and a capable individual acting as a patient.
The legs of the stand up lift must be in the maximum open position for optimum
stability and safety. If the patient is in a sling and it becomes necessary to move
through a narrow passage, close the legs of the stand up lift only as long as it takes
to move through the passage. When the stand up lift is through the passage, return
the legs to the maximum open position.
If it is necessary to close the legs to maneuver the stand up lift under a bed, close
the legs only as long as it takes to position the stand up lift over the patient and lift
the patient off the surface of the bed. When the legs of the stand up lift are no
longer under the bed, return the legs to the maximum open position.
