When traversing stairs with a patient on the HFL, the emergency responders should determine the best
way to face, based on the actual circumstances, (responders typically face each other when transporting a
patient via stairs). However, when going up stairs, the emergency responder using the upper handles has
the option of facing away from the lift, if they deem that to be more appropriate to the specific situation,
(i.e., so they can look forward in the direction of travel).
Stair Handle Set Components:
There are four components in the stair
handle set; two upper handles (left and
right), and two lower handles (left and
right). Note: The upper handles are longer
than the lower handles, as shown.
Also included is a storage bag that mounts
on the
back of the lift’s main column.
NOTE:
The Stair Handle Set accessory and
the IndeeChuck accessory can both be
secured to the HFL in their separate storage
bags at the same time.
Mounting Points:
The left and right upper handles are affixed to the HFL in the two round mounting points on the top of the
lift,
(they are left/right specific).
The lower handles affix directly to the left and right outriggers on the
bottom of the HFL,
(they are not left/right specific).
Deploying the Upper Handles:
The upper pair of handles are the longer of the two handle sets with the rubber grips. Install the upper
handles (left & right) by standing behind the lift
. NOTE: The upper handles are different for the left and
right sides (as shown in the fifth picture on the next page).
