WARNING
ALWAYS use the color coded strap on the stand-
ing sling closest to the patient while still main-
taining patient stability and comfort.
Make sure the color coded strap sits flush
against the attachment knob in STEP 3C of FIG-
URE 4, otherwise injury or damage can result.
NOTE: The color coded straps can be used to place
the patient in various positions. The colors make it
easy to connect both sides of the sling equally.
2. From the OUTSIDE of the stand up lift, attach the
standing sling to the stand up lift at the attachment
point determined in STEP 1.
3. Make sure of the following:
A. The standing sling is wrapped around the OUT-
SIDE of each lift arm.
B. Use the closest color coded strap to the patient that
maintains stability and comfort.
C. The color coded strap sits flush against the attach-
ment knob.
D. The same color coded strap is used on each side of
the standing sling.
E. The same attachment point is used on each lift arm.
NOTE: If necessary, adjust the attachment point
of the transport sling to each lift arm.
4. Once a stable and comfortable position is found for
the patient, mark the attachment points and color
coded strap used in the patient file for future use.
