SECTION 3— OPERATION

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to transfer a patient without approval of the patient’s physician, nurse, or medical

assistant. Thoroughly read the instructions in this owner’s manual, observe a trained team of experts

performing the lifting procedures and then perform the entire lift procedure several times with

proper supervision and a capable individual acting as a patient.
The legs of the stand up lift MUST be in the maximum open position for optimum stability and

safety. If the patient is in a sling and it becomes necessary to move through a narrow passage, close

the legs of the stand up lift only as long as it takes to move through the passage. When the stand up

lift is through the passage, return the legs to the maximum open position.

NOTE: The use of the patient lift by one assistant should be based on the
evaluation of the health care professional for each individual case.
