Lifting And Lowering - Etac molift Partner 255 Manuel D'utilisation

Plan the lifting operation in advance to ensure that
it is as safe and smooth as possible. Remember
to work ergonomically. Assess the risks and take
notes. The assistant is responsible for the safety of
the user.

Using Slings
It is important that the sling has been tested with
the individual user and for the intended lifting
situation.
Read User Manual for the sling
prior to use.
Do not to use damaged or badly
worn slings.
Slings made by other manufacturers
We recommend only using Molift slings. Etac shall
not be liable for faults or accidents that can occur
when using slings made by other manufacturers.

Lifting and lowering

When moving the user, stand to the side of the
person you are lifting. Make sure that arms and
legs do not obstruct the seat, bed, etc. Keep eye
contact with the user to help them feel safe.
The 4-point sling bar must always be positioned
across the user, to prevent the user from uninten-
tionally sliding out of the sling.
Transfer
The sling bars hook design prevents sling to be
inadvertently detached when mounted correct.
1. Check that the sling is correctly fitted around
the user and that the strap loops are correctly
fitted to the sling bar hooks.
2. Stretch the sling straps without lifting the
user. Ensure that all four loops of the sling are
securely fastened to avoid the user slipping or
falling.
3. Lift user, and perform transfer.
