Safety Precautions
To be aware of
The manual for both lift and sling
must be read thoroughly before use
to avoid injury when handling and
using the product.
It is important that the sling has been tested with
the individual user and for the intended lifting situ-
ation. Make a decision on whether one or more
assistants are required.
Plan the lifting operation in advance to ensure that
it is as safe and smooth as possible. Remember to
work ergonomically.
Assess the risks and take notes. You as a carer are
responsible for the safety of the user.
Never lift a user higher from the
starting point than what is necessary
to carry out a lift. Never leave the user
unattended in a lifting situation
Always check
• that the user has the required ability for
the sling in question
• that the model, size and material are
suitable
• that the sling is suitable for the lift/
slingbar to be used.
• It is important to check that the strap
loops are correctly attached to the sling-
bar hooks before lifting the user.
• Make sure wheels on the wheelchair,
bed or bunk are locked when necessary
during the transfer process.
Inspection
The sling must be inspected regularly, preferably
prior to each lifting operation but especially after it
has been washed.
• Check to ensure that there is no wear or dam-
age to seams, fabric, straps and loops.
Never use a faulty or damaged sling as
it can break and cause personal injury.
Destroy and discard damaged and old
slings
The sling should not be stored in direct
sunlight.
Periodic inspection
Periodic inspection must be carried out at least
every 6 months. More regular inspection may be
required if the sling is used or washed more often
than is normal. See the periodic inspection form at
