However, it is recommended
that a client specific assessment

This information and
recommendation can only be
provided after a thorough, case
specific, assessment, as there are
many factors that can influence
these decisions.
1.3 Intended use
The mobile hoist is a lifting aid
used by trained personnel. The
mobile hoist makes it possible to
transfer/lift mobility impaired
clients with minimal strain
or risk to the caregiver, while
providing complete safety,
dignity and comfort to the client.
The mobile hoist is one of two
components that makes this
possible. The other component,
the sling, is a specially designed
fabric accessory that attaches to
the mobile hoist by means of a
carry bar and straps, and holds
the client during the lift/transfer.
Please refer to the user guides
supplied with the sling and
reference them while reviewing
this manual.
The functions of raising and
lowering the boom, and opening
and closing of the legs on the
hoist, are accomplished by
pressing buttons on the hand
control. The hand control is
attached to the mobile hoist.
