WARNING
STANDING SLINGS - DO NOT use the standing sling in combination with the
stand-up lift as a transport device. It is intended to transfer an individual from one
resting surface to another (such as a bed to a wheelchair). Moving a person using the
standing sling in combination with the stand-up lift over any distance is not
recommended.
During transfer, with patient suspended in a sling attached to the lift, DO NOT roll
stand-up lift over objects such as carpet, raised carpet bindings, door frames, or any
uneven surfaces or obstacles that would create an imbalance of the stand-up lift and
could cause the stand-up lift to tip over. Use push handle on the mast at all times to
push or pull the stand-up lift.
