5 Lifting the Patient

5.1 Safe Lifting

WARNING!
– DO NOT exceed the maximum weight limitation
(SWL) of 159 kg (25 stone). Maximum patient weight
is 159 kg (25 stone).
– DO NOT attempt to any transfer without approval of
a Healthcare Professional.
– ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts
to avoid injury.
– During transfer, with the patient suspended in the
sling, DO NOT roll the base of the lift over any uneven
surfaces that would cause the lift to become unstable.
– Use the steering handle on the mast assembly at all
times to push or pull the stand assist lift.
WARNING!
Operating the Lift and Lifting the Patient
– Ensure equipment used with the stand assist lift is of
adequate strength to lift the load (e.g. sling). Ensure
that should the equipment malfunction that the person
being lifted is not exposed to danger.
– Before positioning the legs of the stand assist lift
around the patient, make sure that the patient's feet
are out of the way of the foot plate, otherwise injury
may occur.
– Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made
before moving the patient. Patient's arms should be
outside of the sling straps.

WARNING!
Operating the Lift and Lifting the Patient
– Before lifting a patient from a stationary object
(wheelchair, commode or bed), slightly raise the
patient off the stationary object and check that all
sling attachments are secure. If any attachment is not
correct, lower the patient and correct the problem,
then raise the patient and check again.
– During transfer, with the patient suspended in a sling
attached to the lift, DO NOT roll caster base over
uneven surfaces that would create an imbalance of
the patient lift and could cause the patient lift to tip
over. Use steering handle on the mast at ALL times to
push or pull the patient lift.
– Invacare recommends locking the rear swivel casters
ONLY when positioning or removing the sling (stand
assist or transfer) from around the patient.
– Invacare does NOT recommend locking of the rear
casters of the patient lift when lifting an individual.
Doing so could cause the lift to tip and endanger the
patient and assistants. Invacare DOES recommend
that the rear casters be left unlocked during lifting
procedures to allow the patient lift to stabilize itself
when the patient is initially lifted from a chair, bed or
any stationary object.
