DESCENT OF THE PATIENT WITHOUT CURRENT
In the case of the hoist not descending the patient,
either because of overweight or lack of electric
current, the hoist has a security system to descend
the patient safely.
Push the red piece located at the top of the electric
motor’s stem downwards and turn clockwise. This
will make the arm go down slowly.
MOVEMENT OF THE HOIST
1. Place yourself behind the hoist and grab the handles strongly.
2. Open the legs as indicated before on “LEGS OPENING/CLOSING”.
3. Unlock the wheels as indicated before on “WHEELS BRAKES”.
4. Push the hoist from the handles to the desired direction. The hoist
has rotating wheels that ease its manoeuvrability.
The control has a battery capacity indicator which
indicates the charge capacity of the batteries. When
this indicator shows a red light it means that the
batteries have reached their minimum level and
there is risk of damaging them. At that point, end
the manoeuvre and charge the hoist before using it
again.
In case of failure of this control, the control box has
two buttons, up and down, to use the hoist.
