Amico GoLift Patient Lift

Introduction

The primary purpose of a ceiling lift system is to safely lift and transfer a patient with as little effort as possible for the caregiver, regardless of the room type. A ceiling lift is simple and safe for the caregiver as well as the patient. The lift systems fit into all environments.
DESCRIPTION
The Amico GoLift is an ideal ceiling lift system designed for routine transfers of patients. The most compact ceiling lift in its class, the Amico GoLift is designed to be aesthetically pleasing to both the caregiver and the patients. In an effort to address infection control requirements, we gave careful consideration to the smooth edges and rounded corners of our ceiling lift, Carry Bar, and hand control. When you look under the cover of this compact lift, you will find an impressive set of all metal gears and state-of- the-art battery technology that will allow the caregiver to safely, and effortlessly, transfer a patient weighing up to 700 lbs on a single lift. For larger patients, you may combine two compact GoLift systems to obtain a lifting weight of 1000 lbs. In addition, our revolutionary trolley design allows for quick installation of the lift into and out of the track. The trolley provides an instant mechanical and electrical connection while our modular track system gives you tremendous flexibility so that your workspace may be optimized to suit your needs for any working environment.

The GoLift is available in two weight capacities which must not be exceeded:
400 lbs (182 kg)
700 lbs (318 kg)
The Amico GoLift is a fixed lift and can be installed in a variety of track profiles (the trolley can be customized to fit these track profiles) and it also works seamlessly with the Amico GoLift Pendant (PLP) System.

Basics in Transferring a Patient

Lifting Sling:
A lifting sling with four to six straps designed for mounting on hooks should be used when using an Amico  GoLift Carry Bar. Place the straps on the hooks and make sure the loops are not in the latch so the straps
do not unintentionally fall off.
Amico Mobility shall not be liable for faults or accidents due to incorrect use of the lifting sling, or for reasons of inadequate attention on the part of the caregiver or patient.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Lifting Sling

Working with the Amico GoLift:
The Amico GoLift moves freely in the track system and does not have any special requirements for space or power in connection with moving. Attention can be fully focused on the user’s functional level and the caregiver’s technique.
To use the GoLift correctly, the patient should only be lifted to the extent that she/he is clear of the surface and should be moved at this height.

Attaching the Lifting Sling:
Place the straps from the lifting sling on the hooks of the Carry Bar. Start with the uppermost set of straps (from the back) and then take the lowest set of straps (from the legs)

****Be careful when attaching the lifting sling on the hooks. Check that the straps have been completely through the opening and into place in the Carry Bar hooks.  When pressing the up button to lift the patient, check again that all straps remain correctly placed in the Carry Bar’s hooks.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Lifting to and from a seated
position

Lifting to and from a seated position:

  •  When lifting a patient from e.g. a wheelchair, move the Amico GoLift towards the patient to be lifted.
  •  The Carry Bar should be at the same height as the patient’s chest and should not be moved further in over the user to the approximately mid-though position.
  •  Place the Carry Bar parallel to the patient’s shoulders.
  •  Place the lifting sling behind the user’s back between the back of the chair and the user’s back.
  •  The center band of the lifting sling should follow the user’s spine. Lead the leg straps along the outer sides of the patient’s shins and beneath the thighs between the hollow of the knees and the hip joints. Cross the leg straps in front of the user.
  •  All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached. The lifting sling can now be mounted on the Carry Bar.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Lifting to and from lying position in
bed

Lifting to and from lying position in bed:

  •  Bring the Carry Bar over the center of the patient to be lifted.
  • Place the Carry Bar parallel to the patient’s shoulders.
  • Turn the patient onto his or her side. The sling should be placed so that the top of the sling is at the same height as the top of the user’s head. Now position the sling over the user so that the center band follows the user’s spine. Turn the user onto his or her back and pull out the remaining part of the lifting sling.  Place the leg straps beneath the user’s thighs and cross them. All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached and the lifting sling can now be mounted on the Carry Bar. It is an advantage to elevate the head of the bed so that the patient is sitting up.
  • Only persons who have received competent instruction regarding the use of the lifting equipment and fitting of slings should use the Amico GoLift.

Important: Plan the move and avoid leaving the patient in the sling unattended. Before lifting, check that the patient is completely free of his/her surroundings. The patient’s head, arms, hands, and feet must not be in danger or becoming trapped. Be careful with any tubes and wires that are attached to the user. Check that the hand control and hand control cable is free of the hanger, patient, and another object before the lift is activated up or down moved.

Operating the GoLift

The Amico GoLift has switched on automatically when a button on the hand control is pressed. The Amico GoLift switches off automatically after approximately three minutes without activation.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Amico GoLift is switched on
automatically

Charging the GoLift

The charger contacts with two metal charging strips located inside the track. Whenever the lift is over a section of track with charging strips, it will automatically start to charge the lift if the battery is low.
The batteries should be charged on a regular basis. It is recommended that the lift be left on charge when not in operation, and at the end of each day. This will maximize the life cycle of the batteries.
The GoLift may remain connected to the charger indefinitely since the charger has a built-in regulator,  eliminating the danger of overcharging.
As a general rule, it is recommended that the Carry Bar be raised to a height that will not interfere with anything or anyone while the lift is not in use.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Charging the GoLift Do not drain the batteries excessively. This will dramatically reduce the lifespan of the batteries.
If the slow beep sounds, be sure to recharge the battery as soon as possible.

Do not leave the GoLift with the power on for a long time. If the GoLift is not returned to the charger the batteries will be drained and damaged.

Do not install the power supply in a position where it is not possible to disconnect the plug from the charger.
NOTE: Ensure that the trolley is in the charging section of the track when installing the lift.

Emergency Stop

The GoLift unit also has an Emergency Shut-off feature that allows the operator to shut off the power to the lift completely in the event of an emergency. By pulling once on the RED emergency lowering cord, located on the underside of the lift, the lift will immediately stop and all its functions will be disabled. The ON indicator light will turn off, and the Emergency Shut-off button located inside the lift will pop out.  After an emergency, the lift must be inspected prior to restoring to use. In order to restore power to the lift, the tab must be pressed back into the lift.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Emergency Stop

Do not pull the red cord forcefully. For assistance after an emergency,
contact: Amico Service at: acs-service@amico.com or 1.877.462.6426

Emergency Lowering

In the event that the DOWN button on the hand control does not function, or in power failure situations, the patient may be lowered by pulling and holding down the RED emergency lowering cord located on the underside of the lift.
Continue to pull down until the patient is safely lowered to the desired position. The lift will beep as you continue to pull down on the cord and will continue beeping until the cord is released after the desired lowering has been achieved.
NOTE: The emergency lowering button does not provide a raising function. The failure of any of the lowering devices should be reported to Amico Mobility.

In an event of an emergency when the normal lowering system of the lift malfunctions and the “emergency lowering” function is used, the lift must be reset by a qualified lift technician before re-use.

Manual Emergency Lowering

The manual emergency and raising should only be used if the emergency lowering does not work. A proper safety ladder or stool may be required to remove the plug from the cover. Remove the round plug from the lift cover and use a 3/16″ or 2.5 mm Allen key to rotate the motor in the up or down direction.

Caution: DO NOT attempt to use the lift while using manual lowering.

Remove the round plug from the lift cover and use 3/16″ or 2.5 mm Allen key to rotate the motor in the up or down direction.

Amico GoLift Patient Lift - Remove the round plug from the lift
cover

Overspeed Cam

The Overspeed Cam brake is made of a metal bar fixed to the drum. In case of gear or motor breakage, the centrifugal force created will block the bar against the frame.

Cleaning and Disinfection

The exterior of the GoLift should only be cleaned, disinfected using the recommended cleaning agents shown below. Damp a cloth with the cleaning agent and wipe down the entire exterior of the lift and Carry Bar. Other chemicals and/or liquids not listed should not be used to clean and disinfect this lift.

Take great care to ensure that no liquids get inside the Amico GoLift. The lift is not drip-proof or water-tight. Failure to protect the lift from liquids may result in damage to the lift and may cause personal injury.
Recommended cleaning agents:

  • Virox Accel TB
  •  Virox 5
  •  Dispatch Hospital Cleaner disinfectant towels with Bleach
  • Clorox Healthcare Professional Disinfecting Bleach Wipes
  •  Sani-Cloth super germicidal disposable wipes
  •  Virocidin-X

Troubleshooting

Should problems arise with the use of the Amico GoLift, review the following chart. Find the fault and complete the recommended solution. If the fault is not found and or/the solution does not correct the problem contact Amico Mobility.

Fault Recommended Solution

The GoLift emits a slow beep while in use. The lift only goes down but not in the upwards direction.| The batteries are low and the lift should be charged.
The GoLift cannot lift.| If the load is in excess of the safe working load the GoLift will not work due to over-current protection.
The batteries are always dead after a few charges| Replace the batteries as they may be at the end of their service life
The GoLift does not operate when you press the buttons on the hand control.| Check that the emergency cord is not pulled.
The GoLift is not operating properly| Make sure the GoLift is inserted all the way inside the trolley. This would activate the trolley’s limit switches.
The lift does not go up| There may be a twist in the lift strap.

Inspection and Maintenance

Prior to using the Amico GoLift, the inspections should be conducted per the following schedule:

Item Before Use Every Month Annual
GoLift
Ensure that end stops are installed
Inspect strap for wear or fraying
Ensure Batteries are charged
Inspect Carry Bar for damage or sharp edges or gaps in swivel pin area
Inspect the wheels in the trolley. Replace if damaged.
Sling

Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration – Electromagnetic Emissions

The [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.

The customer or the user of the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the [ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM], including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
d = 1.2 √P
d = 1.2 √P 80 MHz to 800 MHz
d = 2.3 √P 800 MHz to 2,5 GHz
where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey,

a.should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.
b.Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the [ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM] is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the [ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM] should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the [ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM].

b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM]


The [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are control LED. The customer or the user of the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
