Lifting hanger
Caution!
Be careful when attaching the lifting sling on the hooks . Check that the
straps have been pulled completely through the rubber safety catch
(A) and into place in the lifting hanger’s hooks . When pressing the up
button to lift the user, check again that all the straps remain correctly
placed in the lifting hanger’s hooks (fig. 1a and fig. 1b).

Lifting to and from a seated position
When lifting a user from e.g. a wheelchair, move the GH3 towards the person
to be lifted.
The lifting hanger should be at the same height as the users chest and
should be in approximately mid-thigh position.
Place the lifting hanger parallel to the users shoulders.
Place the lifting sling behind the users back between the back of the chair
and the users back.
The center marks of the lifting sling should follow the users spine. Lead the
leg straps along the outer sides of the users shins and beneath the thighs
between the hollow of the knees and the hip joints. Cross the leg straps in
front of the user.
All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached. The lifting sling can now
be mounted on the lifting hanger.
