If the Arjohuntleigh Sara 3000 hoist moves unexpectedly, and releasing the buttons doesn't stop it, immediately push the red Emergency Stop button and remove the battery. Then, use the System Failure Lowering Override to safely seat the patient before removing the hoist from use. Ensure a qualified technician inspects and approves the Sara 3000 before it is used again. This is likely due to a faulty hand control, push buttons, or electronics.
