Invacare 9805P manual Transferring the Patient, Performing Maintenance

Page 12

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES

Before transferring 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 patient suspended in a sling attached to the lift, DO NOT roll caster base over objects such as carpet, raised carpet bindings, door frames, or any uneven surfaces or obstacles 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.

Transferring the Patient

When elevated a few inches off the surface of the stationary object (wheelchair, commode, or bed) and before moving the patient, check again to make sure that the sling is properly connected to the hooks of the swivel bar. If any attachments are not properly in place, lower the patient back onto the commode chair or the standard commode and correct this problem.

Wheelchair wheel locks MUST be in a locked position before lowering the patient into the wheelchair for transport.

Before transferring, check that the wheelchair weight capacity can withstand the patientʹs weight.

Be sure to check the sling attachments each time the sling is removed and replaced, to ensure that it is properly attached before the patient is removed from the bed or chair.

Mast pivot under the rubber boot must be tight to ensure safe use of the patient lift. Bolt MUST be checked at least every six months in conjunction with periodic maintenance.

Performing Maintenance

The pump is sealed at the factory. DO NOT attempt to open the pump or obtain local service as this will void the warranty and might result in damage. Consult your dealer or write Invacare for further information.

After the first year of use, the hooks of the swivel bar and the mounting brackets of the boom should be inspected every three months to determine the extent of wear. If these parts become worn, replace them IMMEDIATELY.

Casters and axle bolts require inspections every six months to check for tightness and wear.

After the first twelve months of operation, inspect the swivel bar and the eye of the boom (to which it attaches) for wear. If the metal is worn, the parts MUST be replaced. Make this inspection every six months thereafter.

Regular maintenance of patient lifts and accessories is necessary to assure proper operation.

DO NOT overtighten mounting hardware. This will damage mounting brackets.
