Turning sheet
Attaching the turning sheet before use
What should I do if the turning sheet is rolled askew on the
bars?
Occasionally, the turning sheet will roll askew on the bars. As
such, this is insignificant and the VENDLET system will still be
operable.
This could result in creases in the turning sheet under the
client which is undesirable. Hence, we recommend that you
aim to smooth the turning sheet if the sheet is askew by
more than a hand’s width on the bars.
In this situation, you will have to slacken the sheet that
has been pulled askew and pull it in again while guiding /
smoothing it with your hand.

on one of the bars; begin at the head end of the bed and
work your way down to the foot end.
3. The turning sheet must always be placed OVER the bars
to prevent fingers, hair etc. of the client from getting
caught under the sheet. If the sheet is placed under the
bars, the pulling power will be reduced and the motors
will switch off when the turning sheet is pulled in by the
bar.
