HFL Features/Functionality: 

 

The HFLs for EMS are designed to lift patients from the ground or floor without the risk of injury 
associated with 

manual lifting. Once the patient is properly positioned on the HFL’s seat

, the first 

responder presses upward on the sealed up/down rocker switch which engages the linear actuator. In 
approximately one minute, the patient is safely raised to a height of 21 inches. The raised-seat height 
was designed to allow the patient to stand with minimal effort after being raised from the floor in a 
seated position or transfer to any ADA compliant bed, wheelchair or scooter.   

 

Small Footprint and Easy Portability 

 

HFLs for EMS are portable lifts that are rolled around on wheels like a traditional dolly. Their small 
footprint allows them to access many places gurneys and other lifts simply cannot go. With a turning 
radius of 

24” for the HFL

-500-E, and 30

 for the HFL-600-E, these HFLs can go operate in the tightest of 

spaces, including most small bathrooms. 

 

Mounting Ramp Seat 

 

The HFL patent-pending design includes a mounting ramp seat that eliminates the need to manually "lift" 
a patient. With no complex cradles or harnesses to configure, the HFL allows fall recovery to be simple 
and quick. A person who has fallen can easily slide onto the mounting ramp seat and be off the floor in a 
normal seated position within one minute.  

 

Sealed Up/Down Rocker Switch 

 

HFLs for EMS incorporate a sealed up/down rocker switch to operate the lift. The potted enclosure 
protects the switch from moisture and contamination.  

 

 

Rechargeable Battery 

 

The HFLs for EMS come standard with two Kobalt rechargeable Lithium-ION battery packs and a charger. 
Each charge is good for approximately 30 lifts. (Replacements available at all Lowes.)

 

 

Folding/Stowable Design 

  

Both HFLs for EMS feature stowable outriggers and a folding seat, making them ideal for stowing on 
emergency services apparatus. The stowed dimensions for the HFL-500-

E are 8” D x 20” W x 33” H and 

the stowed dimensions for the HFL-600-E 

are 12” 

D x 

22” 

W x 36

” allowing th

e HFLs to be stowed in 

multiple locations on most apparatus.
