Basics in Transferring a Patient
Lifting sling:
A lifting sling with four to six straps designed for mounting on hooks
should be used with the Amico Portable450 lift.
Amico Mobility shall not be liable for faults or accidents due to
incorrect use of the lifting sling, or for reasons of inadequate attention
on the part of the caregiver or patient.
Working with the Amico GoLift Portable450:
The Amico GoLift Portable450 moves freely in the track system
and does not have any special requirements for space or power in
connection with moving. Attention can be fully focused on the user’s
functional level and the caregivers technique.
To use the GoLift Portable450 correctly, the patient should only be lifted to the extent that she/he is clear of the
surface and should be moved at this height.
Attaching the lifting sling:
Place the straps from the lifting sling on the hooks of the GoLift Portable450 Start with the uppermost set of straps
(from the back) and then take the lowest set of straps (from the legs).
!
Be careful when attaching the lifting sling on the hooks. Check that the straps have been completely through
the opening and into place in the Portable lift hooks.
When pressing the up button to lift the patient, check
again that all straps remain correctly placed.
Lifting to and from a seated position:
• When lifting a patient from e.g. a wheelchair, move the
Amico GoLift Portable450 towards the patient to be
lifted.
• The lifting hooks should be at the same height as the
patient’s chest.
• Place the lifting hooks parallel to the patient’s shoulders.
• Place the lifting sling behind the patient’s back between
the back of the chair and the patient’s back.
• The center band of the lifting sling should follow the
patient’s spine. Lead the leg straps along the outer sides
of the patient’s shins and beneath the thighs between
the hollow of the knees and the hip joints. Cross the leg
straps in front of the patient.
• All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached. The
lifting sling can now be mounted onto the carry bar
hooks.
