WARNING - DETACHABLE SLING STRAPS
If your sling has detachable straps, it is critical to ensure they are securely attached to the sling prior
to lifting a patient. Failure to do so may result in injury to the patient and/or care giver.
Feed each individual strap through the colour-coded loop on the sling. Next, feed the strap through
the 'D' ring and pull it back on itself. Ensure the strap is securely attached to the sling and repeat
for remaining straps.
Fitting the Sling from a Seated Position
1
Make sure the positioning straps and sling identi-
fication label are on the outside of the sling. Feed
the sling down the back of the patient, leaving the
aperture at the base of the spine. Check the sling
is square across the shoulders.
3
Pass strap C up through strap B then repeat for
the other leg using strap D through strap A. Check
the sling is smooth under the patient and the
position is comfortable.

2
Whilst ensuring that the leg section is not twisted,
carefully feed it under and up between the pa-
tient's legs. Repeat this procedure for the other
leg. Cross strap A through strap B.
4
Move the hoist into position and attach the leg
straps to the front hooks on the spreader. Next
attach the shoulder straps to maintain an upright
seated position. The lift may move towards the
patient as you do this. When reseating the client,
use the sling positioning handles to help achieve
a safe and comfortable position.
NOTE: Sling positioning handles are designed
for turning a patient only and must not be used
for lifting.
