2 Safety information
WARNING indicates a potential danger which could lead to personal injury or material damage.
➢
It is the responsibility of the organisation / the user to determine, on the basis of the circumstances
(weight / health condition of the patient) and the capabilities of the user, whether several users may
be required for the transfer and/or whether additional safety measures are required.
➢
Defective products may no longer be used.
➢
Ensure that the transfers are performed by the users in a back-friendly manner.
➢
Weight limits must be observed (200 kg).
➢
Transfer products are subject to a natural ageing process. Inspect the equipment regularly to ensure
proper functionality.
➢
The handle is intended solely for positioning. Do not reach into the handle openings during
transfer.
➢
The use of non-standard cleaning agents or bleaching agents, alcohols or other chemical additives
may lead to permanent deterioration of the sliding mat properties.
➢
Ensure that both ends of the flexible Sliding Board are securely supported on the transfer surfaces.
The clear distance bridged with the flexible Sliding Board must not exceed 20 cm (10 cm in the case
of PM-5020).
➢
Transfers under naked skin must be aided with a protective layer (e.g. towel).
➢
The smooth surface significantly reduces resistance due to friction during repositioning. Check the
transfer surfaces carefully to ensure they are fixed in place securely (e.g. wheelchair, bed).
