Safety instructions

Before using for the first time, make sure that:
• you have read and understood the user
manual for the lift and all of its accessories
• the lift has been installed in accordance
with the installation instructions
• the lift accessories are intended for use with
the lift and are correctly fitted
• Before use: charge battery upon arrival. To
ensure battery capacity is maintained, the
new ceiling lift must be charged for 8 hours
immediately upon arrival before it is put
in use or stored. This is because the ceiling
lift may have been stored for some time
and during that period not been charged
regularly.
• Check to see if there is a distance strap
suspended from the rail or if there is a hook
fitted to the rail roller. The recommended
minimum height from the floor to the
distance strap is 1850 mm.
• Remove the lift and charger from the
packaging.
• Remove the seal from the lift belt after first
reading the user manual.
• Plug the charger in at an easily accessible
wall socket.
• Plug the hand control into the charger (see
page 8). If the indicator light on the charger
is glowing yellow, charge until the indicator
light turns green.

Important! The lift is designed exclusively
for lifting people, and only one at a time.
Before use, always ensure that:
• personnel who use the equipment have
been given adequate tuition and training in
use of the lift and its accessories
• the lift belt is not twisted or worn and that
it can move freely in and out of the lift

• lift accessories, e.g. sling, distance strap and
rail roller, are showing no signs of wear or
other damage
• the lift is correctly suspended in the
distance strap, rail roller and rail
• the right types, sizes, materials and designs
of the accessories have been selected with
respect to the patient's safety and needs
• the lift accessories have been correctly
installed.
• The sling's strap loops and suspension must
be checked once the loops are fully extended
when lifting but before the patient is lifted
from the underlying surface
• It is important to always check that the loops
are at the bottom of all hooks (see picture
below), securely placed below the locking pin.
Right
• Of you have a lift with a telescopic hanger
bar it is important that the hooks of the
telescopic hanger bar are in the correct
position, with the opening of the hook is
facing upwards on both hooks (please see
picture below). Check the position of the
hook once the lift straps are stretched, but
before the patient has left the surface.
