OPERATION (Continued)
Moving the LiftMate
The LiftMate moves about easily on four
extendable/retractable casters.
To extend casters depress the “PUSH AND HOLD TO
MOVE” button on the hand pendant. See Figure 4.
Casters will extend allowing the LiftMate to be moved to
the desired location. The button must be held to keep
casters extended. Releasing the “PUSH AND HOLD TO
MOVE” button will cause casters to retract, lowering the
LiftMate onto the four base feet providing a stable unit for
the patient to step onto.
CAUTION
●Do not lower LiftMate onto wet, or slippery
surfaces, or onto objects that may cause imbalance
●Make sure operator and patients feet are clear of
unit before lowering.
●Make sure path of travel is free of obstructions
that may cause unit to tip.
