Armrest
To use the armrest you need to rotate it from the (vertical)
rest position up to the (horizontal) support position. The
armrest have two purposes: to help the patient feel more
secure and facilitate for the caregiver when moving the lift.
When using the lift to transfer a patient between
rooms, the armrest should be set in the support position!

Parking the sling bar
When the lift is not in use or is being moved without
a load, it can be beneficial to place the sling bar in the
parking panel.
The parking panel is intended for parking Universal
SlingBars 350, 450 and 600 (all models).
When the sling bar is parked in the parking panel, the
lift should not be raised since this could be dangerous and
cause personnel injury or damage to the lift if the sling
bar should release and swing out from the panel.
Installation of Latches
After installation, ensure that the spring
loaded clip is taut against the sling bar and
moves freely in the sling bar hook.
Lift correctly!
Before each lift, make sure that:
– the Sling loops at opposite sides of the Sling are at the same height
– all the Sling loops are fastened securely in to the Slingbar hooks
– the Slingbar is level during the lift, see Figure 1.
If Slingbar is not level (see Figure 2) or if the sling loops is
wrongly
attached to the Slingbar (see Figure 3) lower the user to a firm
surface and adjust according to the Instruction for use of Sling in
use.
An improper lift can be uncomfortable for the user and cause
damage to the lift equipment! (see Figure 2 and figure 3).
