USE INSTRUCTIONS AND CERTIFICATES
Never use the hoist prior to the reading of this manual and without the
appropriate advice of a professional who explains the using technique
in detail.
Our personal lifting hoists Practika, Mini and Stand up have been
developed to grant the highest stability and comfortability. To do so, we
have designed a double compass system which works on both, front
and rear wheels, opening them all at the same time. This system grants
extra stability when lifting the user.
In addition, our hoists’ arm and legs are all foldable, allowing you to
store the hoist saving space.
All these improvements have been patented
by FORTA, therefore, only our hoists can
offer these huge advantages.
FORTA’s hoists comply with the European
Directive 93/42/CEE concerning medical
devices as well as the CE mark. These
hoists have been tested and homologated
by the Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia
(IBV) and comply with the ISO 10535
requirements “Hoists for the transfer of
disabled persons – Requirements and test
methods”.
Each and every one of our hoists is strictly
checked in our factory to verify their
operation.
