This manual contains important safety and maintenance instructions. Please read it
carefully before installing and using your patient lifter.
DANGER!
The National Electrical Code requires that all metallic objects in the
proximity of a swimming pool must be connected by no less than a #8
AWG solid copper wire to a common bonding grid such as the structural
reinforcing steel or the walls of a welded metal pool structure. Attach wire
to ground lug on cement-in sleeve.
WARNING!
This lifter is not interchangeable with any other Hoyer Lifter models. Use
only genuine Hoyer parts and Hoyer slings on all Hoyer lifters. Hoyer lifter
parts are not interchangeable with other manufacturers’ parts. Replace any
worn parts immediately.
WARNING!
Do not exceed maximum weight capacity of 400 lbs.
Installation of Cement-in Sleeve
Notice: All sleeves are now being supplied for flush installation with flush cover
Position the sleeve location per the layout in
Figure 1. Proper position for the mast is 8 to
10 inches from the edge of the pool or tub. The
cement-in sleeve itself is a cylinder 3¼ inches in
diameter and 8 inches long. Mark a 6 inch circle
if existing concrete is to be removed. In a new
installation, position the sleeve on center and
flush with grade.
When the cement-in sleeve is to be installed in
an existing concrete floor or deck, a hole at
least 6 inches in diameter must be cut (Figure
2). The opening must be at least 8 inches deep.
Fill the bottom of the hole with non-shrinking
cement, such as Por-Rok. Make sure the sleeve
is perfectly vertical. Fill in around the sleeve
with more non-shrinking cement. Allow the
cement to set-up and finish the top surface.
