BM04101 Molift Quick Raiser English - Rev F/ 09/2012 Page 6 of 20
• Move the Quick Raiser in front of the patient
and place it in such a way that the patient can
place the feet on the footplate on the chassis.
If necessary - help the patient placing the feet
correctly.
The distance from the front edge of the lift-
er to the kneepads increases when they are
moved upwards.
• Adjust the height of the kneepads so that the
top of the pads are approx. two nger widths
under the kneecap. Loose the locking wheel on
the knee support bracket when adjusting.
The scale on the column can be used to note
the correct height of the kneepads for differ-
ent users
• Attach the strap to the kneepads around the
users legs.
If it proves to be impossible to place the leg
perpendicular to the footplate, you should
pay extra attention when lifting to avoid over
stretching the knee joint.
• Raise the patient carefully until the buttocks
are clear from the seating and tighten the belt.
Unlock the wheels on the lifter and move the
patient to the next location.
Movement
The patient should not be standing straight
up during movement - this can be experi-
enced as uncomfortable.
Be careful during movement not to run into furni-
ture, walls, doors etc.
The lifter shall not be used to lift or move us-
ers on sloping surfaces.
Avoid deep pile carpets, high thresholds, uneven
surfaces or other obstacles that may block the cas-
tors. The lifter may become unstable if forced over
such obstacles increasing the risk of tipping over.
If it is necessary to cross obstacles like a low door
sill, make sure to pull the lifter carefully straight
over it with the big wheels rst.
The lifter shall only be used for movement
over short distances. It is not a replacement
for wheelchair or similar.
Lowering
• Lower the patient into sitting position at the
desired place.
If the patient is to be seated into a wheelchair,
please observe that the wheel brakes must be
locked on the wheelchair when lowering, but
NOT on the lifter.
• Loosen the strap around the users legs and re-
lease ropes from locks.
• Remove the lifter and remove the sling.
