4.9 Colour coding on the straps
The loops on the straps have colour coding, which makes it easier to select the correct
position.
There are three different loops/colours options on the shoulder and leg straps, which allow
the sitting position to be altered so that lift is as comfortable as possible.
It is important that the same colour code is used on both sides e.g. on the shoulder straps.
It may differ between shoulder and leg straps.
The positions when using the three different colours are shown on the illustrations below.
They are only intended as a guide, as the sitting angle is a combination of the adjustment
of both the legs and shoulder strap loops and differs from client to client.
NOTE!!
Always check the condition of a sling before use.
