Since VENDLET Basic is always mounted on beds, it is impor-
tant to consider the whole solution. You should always check
the safe working load (SWL) of the bed and ensure that the
combined weight of the client, the VENDLET system and any
other equipment on the bed never exceeds this limit.
In home care situation the weight of other equipment is esti-
mated to be 25 kg. In this case the SWL of the bed must be at
least 201 kg to be able to handle a user weight of 150 kg:
