102 Purpose
GH2 F is a exible hoist that covers the need for lifting and moving people at
hospitals, nursing homes, institutions, swimming pools, riding schools, and in
private homes.
The exibility of GH2 F lies in the fact that it can be rapidly and easily – with
the least manual handling – transferred from one rail system to another.
Installing it on and deinstalling it from a rail system is partially automated and
is carried out without the use of tools or other assistive technology.
GH2 F with lifting accessories is transported and stored in a specially
designed transport trolley.
