BEFORE USE
Carefully remove all packaging. Avoid using any knives of other sharp instruments as this
may damage the surface of the product.
Check the product for any visible damage If you see any damage or suspect a fault, do not
use your product, but contact your supplier for support.
INTENDED USE
The reacher is designed to assist in reaching and lifting items from the floor, table or shelf. It
can also be used in some situations as a dressing aid; although we would stress caution is
necessary when using the reacher with tights or stockings due to the fine nature of the
material of these garments.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Using the reacher is simple, place the grip over the object you wish to lift and squeeze the
trigger. Ensure the moving finger of the grip and the main frame of the reacher are properly
secured round the object and lift.
Place the object you have lifted safely onto a flat and level surface and release the trigger.
Always assess the suitability of an item before picking it up; do not attempt to
carry heavy or fragile items with your reacher.
Do not under any circumstances attempt to use the reacher to lift or move hot
objects, this could lead to serious injury.
