Assisted Operation – Standard Lift:
If available, a helper can assist a fallen person. When used for assisted
operation, it is recommended that the seat be raised to a height of six
to eight inches from the floor before transporting it to the location of
the fallen person. This will make it easier for the helper to move the
unit.
1.
Stand behind the HFL and place one foot on the back of the
unit. Then gently tilt the HFL backwards by pulling the handle
towards you. You can now pull or push to HFL to the fallen
person.
As you stop at the desired location, ensure there are no foreign objects beneath the
seat before lowering the seat or tilting the unit back to the upright position.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO TRANSPORT A PERSON WHILE THEY ARE SEATED ON THE HFL.
2.
Once you arrive at the location of the fallen person, lower the seat to its fully downward
position, temporarily place the wired remote on the upper transport handle, then position
the HFL directly behind the fallen person, with the mounting ramp seat as close to the
fallen person’s buttocks as possible.
3.
Have the fallen person scoot themselves backwards into the mounting ramp seat, assisting
them if needed. NOTE: If the fallen person has difficulty scooting backwards onto the
mounting ramp seat, you can use the Mount Assist Procedure, on Page 9.
4.
Once the fallen person is fully seated in the center and to the rear of the HFL’s seat, have them
place their hands on the rise assist handles and let them know you are about to raise the seat.
When they are ready, press and hold the up button, as indicated by the arrow on the wired
remote. The seat will rise for approximately one minute, then automatically stop.
5.
When the HFL has stopped, allow the recovered person to catch their breath and rest if
needed, then place the wired remote back on the HFL’s upper transport handle and offer the
recovered person your hand.
6.
Ensure the recovered person’s feet are properly positioned for standing, then assist them,
if needed, as they stand up from the seat.
NOTE: Once the fallen person has been recovered and is no longer near the unit, it is recommended that the seat
be lowered to a height of six to eight inches from the floor to make it easier to transport the unit back to its stored
location. Then leave the seat in this position, so it is easy to transport the unit the next time it is needed.
