To Lift from a Chair
First, ease the patient forward if necessary. Slide
the sling down the patient’s back until seam “C”
reaches the base of the spine (see
Fig. 39).

Method 1 - Bring attachment loops “B” and the leg
sections of the sling underneath the patient’s
thighs. Ensure that the leg sections of the sling
are not twisted underneath the patient. Hook the
attachment loops onto the hooks on the opposing
side of the spreader bar (see Fig. 40 above).

Method 2 - As in Method 1, but pass each leg
section of the sling under both thighs and then out
the other side before attaching points “B” to the
hooks on the opposing side of the spreader bar
(see Fig. 41 above).

Method 3 - As in Method 1, but loop a leg portion
of the sling under each thigh and attach to the
same side hook as the shoulder attachment (left
straps to left hook and right straps to right hook).
This method holds the legs in abduction and is
useful for toileting (see Fig. 42 above).

WARNING: To prevent a fall risk, always check
that all the sling attachment loops are fully in
position before and during the lifting cycle, and
in tension as the patient’s weight is gradually
taken up.
When lowering, ensure that both the patient’s
and attendant’s legs and feet are well clear of the
moving mast to avoid injuries.
