Deploying the Lower Handles:
The lower pair of handles are the shorter of the two handle sets with the rubber grips, and affix directly to
the left and right outriggers on the bottom of the HFL
(they are not left/right specific).
NOTE: When
transporting a patient on the HFL using the stair handle set, it is recommended that the lower handles be
installed
after
the patient has been properly secured to the lift. Therefore, to affix the lower handles,
follow the
Patient Transport Procedure
, steps 1
–
5 on page 12, then proceed as follows.
1.
Once the patient is properly secured to the lift and balanced for transport, have one emergency
responder stand behind the HFL and tilt the lift backward.
2.
Standing in front of the HFL, a second emergency responder installs one of the lower handles
(under spring tension) into one of the outriggers by positioning the handle so it faces away from
the lift.
Reminder: The lower handles are not left/right specific.
3.
While pushing against the spring tension, the second emergency responder turns the lower
handle downward, (as indicated by the red arrow in the second image below), until it locks into
place.
4.
The second emergency responder repeats the above steps for the second lower handle.
5.
Once the lower handles are installed, give them a slight tug to ensure they are properly secured.
