INTENDED USE OF THE PRODUCT

The Aspire Swift Patient Mover has been 
designed to transfer human patients with 
the assistance of one carer or attendant.

standing slings, which have been chosen 
and assessed by a competent trained 
health professional. For a complete list of 
all compliant lifting slings please contact

IMPORTANT – only approved slings and 
accessories are compatible with this 
lifter. If you are unsure please contact 
Aidacare on 1300 133 120.

planned by a trained health professional.
