Intended Use
The Airflo 24 by Mangar Health is a low pressure
air compressor, which has been designed to
inflate the Mangar 'Camel' and 'ELK' pneumatic
lifting equipment through a 4-Way pneumatic
hand control. The 4-Way hand control is
supplied with the Camel and ELK.
Applied Parts (Accessories) for the Airflo 24:

The ELK requires assistance to help lift a patient
from the floor to an elevated sitting position.
Once in a sitting position, the patient can be
transferred to a chair or helped to a standing
position.
The Camel can be operated with or without
assistance and when inflated, lifts the patient
into a raised seated position ready to stand.
No special skills or training are required to
operate the Airflo 24 and its accessories.
Further guidance on operation can be found in
the individual accessory User Instructions.
The Airflo compressor and applied parts are
