SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
 WARNING
SECTION 1 - GENERAL GUIDELINES contains important information for the safe 
operation and use of this product.
 
DO NOT use this product or any available 
optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these 
instructions and any additional instructional material such as owner’s manuals, 
service manuals or instruction sheets supplied with this product or optional 
equipment. If you are unable to understand the warnings, cautions or instructions, 
contact a healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel before attempting 
to use this equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
DO NOT move a person suspended in a sling any distance. The Invacare patient lift 
is NOT a transport device. It is intended to transfer an individual from one resting 
surface to another (such as a bed to a wheelchair). Otherwise, injury or damage 
may occur.
DO NOT dispose of batteries in normal household waste. Device contains lead acid 
batteries. They must be taken to a proper disposal site. Contact your local waste 
management company for information.
Assembling the Patient Lift
DO NOT overtighten mounting hardware. This will damage mounting brackets.
Operating the Patient Lift
Check all parts for shipping damage before using. In case of damage, DO NOT use the 
equipment. Contact the dealer for further instructions.
DO NOT attempt any transfer 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 perform the lifting procedures and then perform the entire lift 
procedure several times with proper supervision and a capable individual acting as a 
patient.
Use common sense in all lifts. Special care MUST BE taken with people with disabilities 
who cannot cooperate while being lifted. 
Invacare slings and patient lift accessories are specifically designed to be used in 
conjunction with Invacare patient lifts. Slings and accessories designed by other 
manufacturers are not to be utilized as a component of Invacare’s patient lift system. 
Although Invacare recommends that two assistants be used for all lifting preparation, 
transferring from and transferring to procedures, our equipment will permit proper 
operation by one assistant. The use of one assistant is based on the evaluation of the health 
care professional for each individual case.
