The 

Prism A-205 Aluminium Mobile Hoist

 

is a lifting aid used by health care professionals  to  transfer     

clients.  The mobile hoist makes it possible to move mobility impaired individuals with minimal strain or risk 
to the caregiver, while providing complete safety, dignity and comfort for the client.  

 

The 

Prism A-205 Aluminium Mobile Hoist

 is one of two components that make up this technology.  The 

other component, the sling, is a specially designed fabric accessory that attaches to the mobile hoist by means 
of a carry bar and straps, and holds an individual while the hoist, or transfer takes place. The sling is generally 
supplied with the mobile hoist at the initial time of purchase. Please refer to any user guides supplied with the 
sling and reference them while reviewing this manual.  

 

The 

 

Prism A-205 Aluminium Mobile Hoist 

has the ability to hoist an individual up from one location such 

as bed, then move the individual to another location and finally lower the individual into a chair or bath. The 
functions of lifting up or down, or opening and closing the legs on the hoist, are accomplished by pressing      
buttons on the hand control. The hand control is attached to the mobile hoist. Due to the design of the mobile 
hoist system, it takes very little effort to press a button to perform the desired motion.
