Please read and follow the safety precautions listed below. The operation and use of Hoyer patient lifts is simple and
straightforward. Following these few basic safety precautions will make lifting operations easy and trouble free.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE USER INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE USING YOUR LIFT
WARNING:
Important safety information for hazards that might cause serious injury.
CAUTION: Information for preventing damage to the product.
NOTE: Information to which you should pay special attention.
WARNING
• Hoyer Patient Lifts should only be operated by fully trained/competent care givers.
• ALWAYS plan your lifting operations before commencing.
• ALWAYS carry out the DAILY CHECK LIST before using the lift.
• ALWAYS familiarize yourself with the operating control and safety features of a lift before lifting a patient.
• DO NOT use a sling unless it is recommended for use with the lift.
• ALWAYS check the sling is suitable for the particular patient and is of the correct size and capacity.
• NEVER use a sling which is frayed or damaged.
• ALWAYS fit the sling according to the instructions provided (user instructions).
• ALWAYS check the safe working load of the lift is suitable for the weight of the patient.
• ALWAYS carry out lifting according to the instructions in the user manual.
• NEVER disconnect or bypass a control or safety feature because it seems easier to operate the lift.
• NEVER force an operating or safety control. All controls are easy to use and do not require excessive
force to operate. If a control is not working easily there will be a reason. Forcing will only strain or damage
the lift and may compromise safety. If in doubt, contact your authorized Hoyer Service Provider or Joerns
Healthcare.
• DO NOT lift a patient with the caster brakes on.
• DO NOT attempt to maneuver the lift by pushing on the mast, boom or patient.
• ALWAYS maneuver the lift using the handles provided. DO NOT attempt to apply additional side force to the
boom or legs of the lift in order to maneuver the product.
