Liko™ HygieneSling  •  7EN160166 Rev. 9

Alt. A: For very thin patients

Pull the loop straps out of the inner belt loops before 

drawing them through the metal rings. 
This enables maximum tension.

Alt. B: Intermediate size

Pull only one loop strap out of the inner belt loop.
Cross the loop straps and draw them through the metal 

rings.

Alt. C: For larger patients

Pass the loop straps through both the inner and outer belt 

loops before drawing them through the metal rings. 

If necessary, for optimal function, the length of the waist belt can be adapted to the girth of the patient.

Adapt the Length of the Strap to the Patient’s Girth

Helpful hint: 

To accommodate an even wider girth, the 

loop straps can be lengthened with Liko Extension Loops.
