Lifting
• Lower the lifting arm to the lowest position
• Alternatively adjust the legs of the QR2/QR2+
to adapt to the lifting situation
To perform a comfortable lift for the patient,
it is recommended that the patient is sitting
in a normal upright position with near 90°
in ankles and knees. It is also recommended
that the patient is wearing suitable shoes or
socks with good friction towards the floor.
If the patient is sitting in a wheelchair, it is
necessary to put on the wheel chair brakes.
It’s also recommended to lock the wheels of
the Quick Raiser when performing the lift.
Patients with an extremely high or displaced
centre of gravity (i.e. lameness on one side of
the body or high weight on the upper body)
may cause the lifter to tip over. Such patients
should be lifted in a passive lifter, i.e. Molift
Partner or Molift Smart, and not with an ac-
tive lifter like Quick Raiser.
• Place the Molift Easy Raiser sling around the
back of the patient as far down as possible.
Connect the belt and tighten.
The ropes must be tightened firmly on the lift-
ing arm. The rope will lock itself due to the
weight of the patient, but if sliding too much
before locking, it may cause an uneven lift
and discomfort for the patient. Check that
the rope has a knot in the end.
Using a V-shaped arm
• Fasten the sling to the lifting arm by pulling the
ropes firmly into the rope locks from the inside
and out as shown in the illustration. When lift-
ing the patient, the ropes will lock even tight-
er due to the weight of the patient. The patient
should grab and hold the handlebars of the lift-
ing arm if possible.
If the patient is large and heavy, it is recom-
mended to lock the rope from the outside and
in to increase the width of the ropes. This will
reduce any pinching effect to the patients
chest.
Using a U-shaped arm
• On a U-arm the ropes is attached to the lifting
arm by pulling them firmly from above into the
rope locks as shown on the illustration.
