1.07 The lifting sling
A lifting sling with four to six lifting straps designed
for mounting on hooks with a minimum diameter
of 8 mm/0.3” should be used when using a
Guldmann lifting hanger.
Slings made by other manufacturers
Guldmann shall not be liable for faults
or accidents that occur as a result of
using lifting slings made by other
manufacturers.
If you are in doubt regarding the
choice or use of the lifting sling:
please contact your supplier.
Guldmann 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 carer or user.
Working with the GH2 hoist
It is only necessary to pay attention to the user’s functional level and the
carer’s technique, as the GH2 hoist makes no special requirements as
regards space or power consumption and runs easily in the rail system.
The user should only be lifted just clear of the underlying surface and
should be moved at this height.
Attaching the lifting sling
Attach the hooks that face the user to the uppermost set of straps (from the
back). Attach the lowermost set of straps (from the legs) to the hooks that
face away from the user.
Lifting to and from sitting position
When lifting a user from e.g. a wheelchair, move the GH2 towards the person
to be lifted.
The lifting hanger should be at the same height as the person’s chest and should
not be moved further in over the user than to approximately mid-thigh position.
Place the lifting hanger parallel to the user’s shoulders.
Place the lifting sling behind the user’s back between the back of the chair
and the user’s back.
The centre band of the lifting sling should follow the user’s spine. As for the
slings type Active the strap showing the size of the sling should be opposite
the spine. Lead the leg straps along the outer sides of the user’s shins and
beneath the thighs between the hollow of the knees and the hip joints. Cross
the leg straps over each other in front of the user.
All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached. The lifting sling can now
be mounted on the lifting hanger.
Lifting to and from lying position in bed
Bring the lifting hanger over the centre of the person to be lifted.
Place the lifting hanger parallel to the user’s shoulders.
Turn the user onto his or her side. The lifting high back sling should be placed
