ƽ WARNING
When elevated a few inches off the surface of the bed and before moving the
patient, check again to make sure that all hardware is properly connected. Check
each S-hook to make sure it is completely attached to the metal support bars of the
sling. Check the attachment of the straps, O or D-rings to the swivel bar hooks. If
any attachments are NOT properly in place, lower the patient back onto the bed
and correct this problem.
Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made before moving the patient.
Patient’s arms should be inside of the chains or straps.
Invacare slings and hardware are made specifically for use with Invacare Patient
Lifts. For the safety of the patient, DO NOT intermix slings and patient lifts of dif-
ferent manufacturers.
