BM05101 Molift Mover 205 English - Rev. J/ 10/2012
When all four loops are hooked onto the suspen-
sion, raise the user carefully.
If the user is in a hospital bed, it will help to
raise the head of the bed
Repositioning of the user may be needed to en-
sure that a safe and comfortable sitting position is
attained as the user is raised. Reposition using the
handle on the back of the sling.
Raise the user until the buttocks are just above the
mattress. Lift the user’s legs and turn her so she
faces the lifting column. When clear of bed, and
if practical, lower the user so that her feet rest on
the chassis. If possible, lower the bed before lifting.
Move the lifter away from bed.
Beware of obstructions under the bed that
can cause castors to stop or tip
Lift to bed
Centre the user over the bed and turn her so that
the feet point to the foot end of the bed. Lower the
user carefully. Remove the loops from the suspen-
sion.
Removing the sling
Gently pull leg section to the side, out from the
user’s thighs and towards yourself. Pull the shoul-
der section under the neck of the user and roll her
gently onto her side. Pull the sling away and roll
her onto her back.
Be careful when rolling the user onto her side.
Make sure you have control over the move-
ment to prevent her from rolling completely
over and out of the bed.
Lift and transfer to and from floor
Lift and transfer from the floor is almost identical
to a lift and transfer from bed - please read this
section. There are two ways to lift from the floor.
