SECTION 3—OPERATION

Introduction

 WARNING

DO NOT attempt any transfer of a patient without approval of the patient's physician, nurse, or

medical assistant. Thoroughly read the instructions in this owner's manual, observe a trained

team of experts performing the lifting procedures and then perform the entire lift procedure

several times with proper supervision and a capable individual acting as a patient.

ONLY operate the lift with the legs of the lift in the maximum open position for optimum

stability and safety. If the patient is in a sling and it becomes necessary to move through a narrow

passage, close the legs of the stand up lift only as long as it takes to move through the passage.

When the stand up lift is through the passage, return the legs to the maximum open position.

If it is necessary to close the legs to maneuver the stand up lift under a bed, close the legs only as

long as it takes to position the stand up lift over the patient and lift the patient off the surface of

the bed. When the legs of the stand up lift are no longer under the bed, return the legs to the

maximum open position.

Invacare slings and lift accessories are specifically designed to be used in conjunction with

Invacare lifts. Slings and accessories designed by other manufacturers are not to be utilized as a

component of Invacare’s lift system.

DO NOT exceed maximum weight limitation of the lift. The weight limitation for the Get-U-Up

Lift is 350 lbs.

ALWAYS keep hands, fingers, feet and toes clear of moving parts to avoid injury.
