Safety Instructions
The Span-America series of full body patient lifts re ect innovative state
of the art design to increase user mobility. The product will provide years
of service if it is properly maintained as any electric and/or mechanical
equipment requires. Please pay careful attention to the following important
information regarding the care, maintenance, and operation of the patient lift.
Carefully read these instructions before assembling the lift, or attempting to lift a user
with the device.
• Special care must be taken with users/patients who cannot
themselves provide assistance while being lifted. (i.e. patients who are
comatose, spastic, agitated, or otherwise severely handicapped.)
• The patient lift should be used solely for transferring a user/patient from
one utility (beds, chairs, toilets, etc.) to another. The patient lift should
not be used for transporting or moving any patient from one location to another
location.
• During lifting or lowering, whenever possible, always keep the base of the lift in
the widest position.
• The base of the lift should be closed before moving the lift.
• Do not roll casters over any object while the user/patient is in the sling.
• Do not lock casters during lifting.
• While being lifted in a sling, always keep the user/patient centered over the base
and facing the caregiver operating the lifter.
• Never leave the user/patient unattended during lifting.
The F500P allows a person to be lifted and transferred safely, with minimum physical
effort provided by the caregiver. Before attempting to lift anyone, please practice
operating the lift. Also prior to actual lifting, explain the lifting procedure to the user/
patient.
Service personnel may contact Span for any information, instructions or certain parts
