from and transferring to procedures with a cooperative, weight--bearing individual able to support the majority of his/her

F
perform the transfer.

Y
Invacare standing and transport slings are specifically designed to be used in conjunction with the
Invacare Stand Up Lift. Slings and accessories designed by other manufacturers or other Invacare slings
are not to be utilized as a component of Invacare's stand up lift system. Use of these products is prohibited
and will void Invacare's stand up lift warranty. Use only genuine Invacare standing and transport slings and
lift accessories to maintain patient safety and product utility. Use the sling that is recommended by the
individual's doctor, nurse or medical assistant for the comfort and safety of the individual being lifted.
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.
Invacare recommends locking the rear swivel casters ONLY when positioning or removing the sling
(standing or transport) from around the patient.
Invacare does NOT recommend locking the rear swivel casters of the stand up lift when lifting and
transferring an individual. Doing so could cause the lift to tip and endanger the patient and assistants.
Invacare DOES recommend that the rear swivel casters be left UNLOCKED during lifting and transferring
procedures to allow the stand up lift to stabilize itself when the patient is initially lifted from and transferred
to a chair, bed or any stationary object.
STANDING SLINGS - DO NOT use the standing sling in combination with the stand up lift as a transport
device. It is intended to transfer an individual from one resting surface to another (such as a bed to a
wheelchair). Moving a person using the standing sling in combination with the stand up lift over ANY
distance is NOT recommended.
STANDING SLINGS - Before lifting the patient, make sure the bottom edge of the standing sling is posi-
tioned on the lower back of the patient and the patient's arms are outside the standing sling.
STANDING SLINGS - The belt MUST be snug, but comfortable on the patient, otherwise the patient can
slide out of the sling during transfer, possibly causing injury.
TRANSPORT SLINGS - Before lifting the patient, make sure the bottom edge of the transport sling is at the
base of the spine and the patient's arms are outside the transport sling.
DO NOT use any kind of material (such as a plastic back incontinence pad or seating cushion) between
the patient and sling material that may cause the patient to slide out of the sling during transferring.
ALWAYS use the color coded strap on the standing sling closest to the patient while still maintaining
patient stability and comfort.
