1.1 Purpose
The Luna
IPx4,
referred to in this user guide as Luna, is also available in different models. If
not otherwise stated in this guide the description is valid for all models.
The Luna ceiling hoist is designed to transfer client between bed and chair/wheelchair or

home care. The Luna ceiling hoist can be used as a ceiling mounted hoist or as a mobile
hoist in fixed or movable track systems.
Before using the Luna please read and follow these instructions:
Personnel will have received qualified instructions in using the Luna ceiling hoist.
Luna is used in suitable track systems that have been approved by Ergolet.
The installation of the track system is carried out by installers authorised by Ergolet.
Luna can only be fitted with spreader bars supplied by Ergolet.
The Luna has been developed for use with Ergolet lifting slings and other sling
products authorised by Ergolet. See Ergolet’s sling leaflet for specific information
about slings.
Luna is intended for use under normal temperatures (+2 to +40˚C) and relative
humidity (40 – 90%).
If Luna is used near shower systems or bath, it should be ensured that the Luna or
hand control is not submerged (see section 3.3).

1.2 Safety instructions
Important – Warning!
This user guide must be read thoroughly before Luna is taken into service.
All parts must be mounted correctly and according to this user guide.
There must be no indication of wear and tear on the Luna ceiling hoist, track
system or lifting sling.
NEVER begin lifting if there is suspicion of any defect (abnormal sound, loose
brackets etc.) In such cases the hoist must be taken out of service immediately and
you must contact your dealer or Ergolet.
The Luna lifting capacity is 200 kg or 275 kg and this must never be exceeded.
When using Luna in connection with other components e.g. slings or transportable
track systems it is always the component with the LOWEST weight capacity that
decides the maximum lifting capacity.
Ensure that the Luna or the spreader bar does not come into contact with the user,
when the sling is hung onto the spreader bar
Ensure that neither carers/helpers nor clients/users can be hurt during the lifting.
Never lift higher than necessary when hoisting.
