There are two different sling bar options available for Sabina sit-to-stand lift, as well as many different sit-to-stand vests.
The patient’s overall mobility determines which sling bar and sit-to-stand vest to use. Carefully read the instruction guide
for the lifting accessories used. Before using Sabina sit-to-stand lift, it is important to make an individual setting of the lifting
height, see page 6.
Using Sabina sit-to-stand lift to Assist Users into a Standing Position
Raising a person with active lifting using Sabina sit-to-stand lift with SlingBar 350
1. Place the SupportVest around the patient according to the
vest’s instruction guide. Place Sabina sit-to-stand lift in front of
the patient and adjust the width of the base. Place the feet in
the middle of the foot rest with the lower legs parallel to the
lower leg support. Adjust the height and depth of the lower leg
support as needed for comfortable support below the kneecap.
2. Connect the vest’s straps to the sling bar’s hooks.
If applicable
: tighten the calf strap.
3. Raise the sling bar about 10–20 cm (4-8 in). The patient
grabs the sling bar. Continue the lifting procedure. If the
patient leans backwards, the raising will be made easier,
preventing the vest from sliding up. The height to which
the lift should proceed varies from person to person.
Before the patient is lifted from the underlying
surface, but after the straps have been fully extended,
make sure the straps are properly connected to the sling
bar.
4. For a more upright position, continue the lifting
motion to the uppermost position. The raising motion
can be experienced as unpleasant for the person not
used to it.
Remember that Sabina II EE sit-to-stand
lift has two different speeds.
For maximum comfort,
the lift mast should be affixed to the base in the best
possible of the three fastening holes. See page 6.
For this sling bar, we recommend Liko SupportVest mod. 91 or Liko SafetyVest mod. 93, 94. When using SlingBar 350, the
patient has the arms outside the sling. SlingBar 350 in combination with SafetyVest mod. 93, 94 gives the patient extra support
in the standing-up situation. Below please find a description of the use of the SupportVest mod. 91.
See the instruction guide
for the respective sit-to-stand vest for more information.
