Milford Person Lift www.pridemobility.com 17
WARNING! The orientation of the person should be as shown in the instructions at all
times during lift operation. The following images show INCORRECT sling settings
which could cause discomfort to the person being lifted. It will also be difficult to use
the lift properly and get the person seated correctly. If this occurs, lower the person
back into their seat and adjust the sling ensuring the sling and straps are correctly
positioned.
This sling has been adjusted incorrectly. The leg
straps are too short causing the person to be
positioned away from the spreader bar. To
correct this, lower the person to a safe position,
check that the leg supports of the sling are
positioned correctly and adjust the leg and side
straps as necessary.
This sling has not been pushed far enough down
the persons back before attaching the leg straps.
This provides less support for the person being
lifted and the leg straps will be uncomfortably
tight. To correct this, lower the person to a safe
position, pull the sling lower at the back before
repositioning the leg supports checking that they
are spread evenly under the thigh.
