Slings 

Sling Clips should be attached as follows: 

 

1.

 

Hold the Sling Clip in your hand and attach the clip onto the Safety Belt Clip Pin on the Transfer Aid.

 

2.

 

Once the Clip is secure, position the Belt around the lower back of the patient, ensuring the elasticated section is placed 

on the user’s lumbar spine and the solid section is place under the user’s coccyx.

 

Hold onto the other Sling clip with 

your hand.

 

3.

 

Ensure the Rear Castor brakes are applied.

 

4.

 

With the Belt secured on one side of the Transfer Aid, and the other by the caregivers’ hand, the patient may safely lift 

themselves onto the Transfer Aid, using the Safety belt as an assistive product only.

 

5.

 

Do not use the belt to raise the patient, the patient must be able to lift themselves, with the belt being a support.

 

6.

Compatible Belt Types 

 

We recommend the use of the Mackworth manufactured belt range (type ‘B’ 

applied part) to be utilised with the Mackworth TA400. It is at the user’s 

discretion to use alternative supplied product. In utilising another 

manufacturer’s belt, checks must first be made to ensure the belt is safe to 

use and meets the requirements of BS EN ISO 10535 before its use. 

 

The belts with a safe working load of 180kg (400 lb) that can be used with the 

Mackworth TA400 are shown below in Table 3, complete with product codes. 

For all components, the lowest maximum safe working load must always be 

adhered to.
