Correct sling size is important for your comfort and safety. The sling “D-
rings” should slip easily onto the lift arm hooks see image #1 below. We
recommend that the lift arm slide hook adjustment should be approximately
midway between the hip and waist when you are in the standing position
see image #2. After a few standing sessions, you will find the most com-
fortable setting for your slide hooks.
To raise yourself to the stand position, simply pump the jack handle back and
forth. Carefully lift yourself until your legs are straight and you feel comfortable.
IMPORTANT:
Exercise caution the first several times you raise yourself to as-
sure not only your safety, but also your comfort.
Once you are in an upright position, secure the safety belt and pad around your
upper back. Table height adjustment is important for upper body control. The
chest pad should be positioned near the bottom of the sternum, the point on your
rib cage where your bottom two ribs meet. In order to maintain correct posture,
the table may be adjusted in or out in order to align the upper and lower portion of
your body .
Now that most adjustments have been made, check and retighten all knobs to
ensure that your Stand Aid 1600 will remain in proper position. To lower yourself,
release the safety belt and safety gate, push downward on the jack release lever.
