Sizing – all slings
20
Each sling is marked with the following coded symbols, two or three of which will
be crossed out. Your sling will be the size that is
not crossed out. In the example
shown below, the size of the sling is small. (On the actual label, the symbol will
be blue and the sling will have red piping)
The straps on the sling are also colour coded. For example, a large sling will have
green loops in the positions normally used for a large patient.
The following sizing chart is offered as a guide only and each patient should be
assessed individually.
Small 70 – 126 lbs 32 – 57 kgs
Medium 126 – 196 lbs 57 – 89 kgs

The maximum safe working load of the Easifit Sling is 210 kgs.
Important: All slings in the Unihoist Ltd range are rated at a safe working load of
210kgs. This is to ensure that any of these slings can be used with safety.
It is
important to take the safe working load of the lift as the maximum
permissible load of any lifting operation.
