Invacare does NOT recommend locking of the
rear casters of the patient lift when lifting an indi-
vidual. Doing so could cause the lift to tip and en-
danger the patient and assistants. Invacare DOES
recommend that the rear casters be left UNLOCKED
during lifting procedures to allow the patient lift to
stabilize itself when the patient is initially lifted from
a chair, bed or any stationary object.
