the patient's physician, nurse or medical assistant.
Thoroughly read the instructions in the Owner's

perts performing the lifting procedures and then
perform the entire lift procedure several times with

The legs of the stand up lift MUST be in the MAXI-
MUM OPEN position and the shifter handle
LOCKED in place for optimum stability and safety. If

the stand up lift is through the passage, return the
legs of the stand up lift to the MAXIMUM OPEN
position and LOCK shifter handle IMMEDIATELY.
Before positioning the legs of the stand up lift
around the patient, make sure the patient's feet are
out of the way of the footplate, otherwise injury can
occur.
NOTE: If preparing to lift the patient from a bed, make
sure there is nothing under the bed before pushing
the stand up lift under the bed and around the pa-
tient.
