Identify the attachment loop on each side of the
sling and attach the right hand adjustment cord to
the left loop, repeat for the other side (see Fig. 29).
See also Fig. 18 for attachment of the cords.
When both cords are attached correctly make
adjustments on both cords equally so that any slack
in the cord is taken up.
Identify the support strap on each side of the sling
(fitted with a plastic attachment clip), and adjust
both straps to their maximum length. Attach each
clip to the lug situated on the outer sides of the Arc-
Rest (see Fig. 31).
Allow the patient to hold the hand grips with their
arms resting on the Arc-Rest.
Operate the lift button on the handset or dual
control panel, continue to raise until each support
strap is in tension and the patient’s back just comes
away from the chair, then stop the lift. Then adjust
both cords equally to take up any slack, lock both
cords into the locking cleats. (See Fig. 32).
Continue raising until the patient is just clear of the
seat.
