Slings
Safety Instructions
•
Check that the client is sitting securely in the
sling before starting to lift him/her.
•
Check that the lift is balanced when moving,
raising and/or lowering the client. If you
are using a Human Care lift with telescopic
hanger bar, it is important that the bar hooks
are in the same position on both sides.
•
Our slings have been designed and tested
for indoor use with one client at a time and
must only be used for transferring a person.
This product is not a swing.
•
Make sure no sharp objects are in contact
with the sling.

The process of lifting and moving a person
always involves risks. Therefore, you must read
the user manuals for the lift and the lifting
equipment carefully. Always make sure that
the lifting equipment you are using is intended
for use with the lift. As a care provider, you are
responsible for the client’s safety and you must
know whether the client will be able to cope
with the lifting process. The sling must be fitted
to meet the client’s specific needs. If you are in
any doubt, please contact the supplier.
•
Carry out a careful visual inspection of the
sling every time you use it.
•
Check that the right sling is being used for
the client. The model, size and material must
meet the client’s needs.
•
Plan the moving and lifting process so that it
is as safe as possible.
•
Before raising the client, check that the sling
is correctly attached to the lift/hanger bar
once the lift straps are stretched.
•
It is important that the hooks of the hanger
bar are in the correct position, with the
opening of the hook facing upwards on both
sides to securely hold the straps in place.
Recheck the position of the hooks once the
lift straps are stretched.
•
It is important to always check that the loops
are at the bottom of all hooks (see pictures)
and securely placed below the locking pin on
all hooks.
