CAUTION

When using either the chains or straps to connect the sling to the patient lift, the short- est of the two sections of the chains or straps MUST be attached to the back section of the sling. Using the long section will leave little or no support for the patient’s back.

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.2 on page 25.

1.With the patient laying on his/her back and positioned properly in the sling, lay the chains or straps on the bed next to the sling.

2.Place the short section of chain or strap parallel to the patient’s back.

NOTE: This will position the longer section of chain or strap from the waist to the mid section of the thigh.

3.Insert the S-hooks on the ends of the chains or straps into the metal support bar of the sling.

NOTE: The S-hook MUST be inserted through the hole in the support bar with the open end facing away from the patient (Detail “B” FIGURE 6.2).

NOTE: The O-ring of the chain assembly is the suggested location to attach to the swivel bar, however, by changing to different links, you can reposition the patient into a reclining or more upright position.
