Product Description and Handling Instructions
When applying the transfer sling, take each leg
section of the sling in turn and slide under each leg,
(see Fig. 5).
To fasten the support strap securely, press the
buckles (if available) or velcro (if available)
together. The strap shall be tight, but comfortable
for the resident. See fig 9. Remember to tighten the
strap once the resident becomes raised from the
chair.
The sling may be applied before or after the
Sara
3000
is brought into position.
The sling support strap will help to support the
resident in the sling during the raising procedure.
The strap also retains the sling in the correct position
around the resident.
If the
Sara 3000
is not already close to the resident,
bring it to the resident.
Apply the clips to the attachment points, and secure
them for safety by pulling the clips as shown in
Fig. 7.
When using the transfer sling; identify the
attachment loop on each leg-side -left and right- of
the sling and attach them on the central lug located
in between the resident support arms, positioned
towards the resident. (see Fig 8)
