HOW TO FIT FROM SEATED POSITION

Raise  the  client’s  leg  and  feed  the  padded  leg 

piece under and up between the legs. Ensure that 

the sling is not twisted or creased under the thigh. 

Repeat this procedure for the other leg.

Feed the right leg support through the strap on 

the left leg support. Cross over leg straps, pass 

one leg strap through the other and attach to hoist 

on front hooks.

Raise  lift  to  convenient  height  and  attach  the 

shoulder  straps  as  shown. You  may  then  raise 

the  client  to  the  required  height.  When  seating 

the client the hand grip on the back of the sling 

may be used to ensure a good seated posture.
