HOW TO FIT FROM SEATED POSITION
Place the sling down the back of the client and position
just beneath the shoulder blades and above the belt line.
Attach the buckle strap around the front of the client. There
is no need for the buckle strap to be tight. The buckle strap
is a positioning mechanism and not a restraint.
NOTE:
Padding behind the buckle straps does not need
to overlap.
1
Raise the client’s leg and feed the leg strap under and
up between the legs. Ensure that the sling fabric is not
twisted or creased under the thigh. Repeat this procedure
for the other leg.
2
Cross over the leg straps and attach to the 4-point cradle
using the leg strap attachment points. Raise the hoist
and attach the shoulder straps to the 4-point cradle using
the shoulder attachment points (see diagram opposite).
NOTE:
The hoist may move towards the client.
