Position the patient over the seat with their back against the back of the chair. 5. Begin to lower the patient either by opening the control valve or by pressing the DOWN () button. 6. With one assistant behind the chair and the other operating the patient lift, the assistant behind the chair will pull back on the grab handle (on select models) or sides of the sling to seat the patient well into the back of the chair.

To return to the seating surface, reverse procedures for lifting the patient, operation and sling attachments. ƽ WARNING Be sure to check the sling attachments each time the sling is removed and replaced to ensure that it is properly attached before the patient is removed from the bed or chair. 8 TRANSFERRING THE PATIENT Part No. 1078987 FIGURE 8.2 Transferring to a Wheelchair 37 Manual/Electric Portable Patient Lift
