6. Troubleshooting
WARNING!
The orientation of the person should be as shown in the
instructions at all times during lift operation.
The following images show
the CORRECT and INCORRECT
sling settings. A poorly set up sling
could cause discomfort to the person being lifted. It will also be difficult
to use the lift properly and get the person seated correctly. If this occurs,
lower the person back into their seat and adjust the sling ensuring the sling
and straps are correctly positioned.
This sling has been adjusted incorrectly.
The leg straps are too short causing the
person to be positioned away from the
spreader bar. To correct this, lower the
person to a safe position, check that the
leg supports of the sling are positioned
correctly and adjust the leg and side
straps as necessary.
This sling has not been pushed far
enough down the persons back before
attaching the leg straps. This provides less
support for the person being lifted and the
leg straps will be uncomfortably tight. To
correct this, lower the person to a safe
position, pull the sling lower at the back
before repositioning the leg supports
checking that they are spread evenly
under the thigh.
