8.3.10
Use of the spreader bar and other accessories
Warning
The patient lift is not intended for indiscriminate measuring activities.
On account of the legislation in force at the time of publication, use of the spreader bar for weighing
patients constitutes a significant modification which requires the person carrying out the operation
to carry out a separate risk analysis and metrological assessment of the new assembly and, if
relevant, and to notify the Ministry of Health. In this case, KSP Italia is relieved of all liability for
damage and/or injury of any type resulting from this use.
8.4
Emergency instructions
In the event of any problems arising during transfer, it may be necessary to put the device
into the safety position. This involves stopping the lift, applying the brake and lowering the
sling to the ground, if necessary. These indications are general‐purpose. Specific situations
will depend on the type of environment and emergency. For example, in the event of
flooding, the patient lift should not be lowered to prevent it from coming into contact with the
water.
In this position the patient lift is immobilised and stable.
With regards to the patient stander,
the safety position involves stopping the patient stander,
applying the brake if necessary, bringing the patient stander to a seat and lowering the sling until
the User is resting on the seat.
The person sitting on the patient lift must be calm and relaxed at all times. It is
fundamental that the person being transferred refrains from making any abrupt
or jerky movements.
