Description of vest strap function
The outer vest is equipped with two vest straps: outer
and inner strap, for maximum flexibility during use.
Generally, you should use the inner strap (A) to achieve
a maximum upright stance. The outer strap (B) is used
when the patient’s girth so requires it, or if the patient is
short in relation to the height of the slingbar hooks on the
Sabina.
In cases where the inner strap is used, we recommend
that you also hook the outer strap to the lift in order to
have better visual control of the straps.

Safety instructions!
• Determine, in each case, whether more than one
caregiver is required to safely execute the lift.
• Plan the lift/transfer before starting, so that it can be
executed as safely and efficiently as possible.
• Although Liko slingbars are equipped with safety
hooks to prevent straps from accidentally unhooking,
particular attention is necessary: before the patient has
been lifted, but after tension has been applied to the
straps, it is important to check that the strap is hooked
correctly on the slingbar!
• Never lift a patient higher than necessary. Consider
the patient’s individual needs and condition.
• Never leave a patient unattended during a lift/transfer.
• Ensure that wheels on wheelchairs, beds, gurneys,
etc. are appropriately locked during the lift/transfer.
