IMPORTANT NOTES!

Please pay attention to the important information regarding the care, maintenance, and operation of the Protekt 600 Stand Sit To-Stand Patient Lift 34600 in this manual.
Please read the instructions carefully before assembling the lift or attempting to lift any patient with the device.

WARNING!
Do not attempt to transfer a patient without prior approval of the patient’s nurse or caregiver. Also, do not transfer without having studied the instructions and performed several practices in operating the product. Together (with the patient’s doctor, nurse, or medical attendant) select a Proactive Medical Product sling that is both practical and comfortable. The sling selected should be one that serves the needs of the patient, while providing the patient with optimal safety. Never interfere with the lift, unless instructed by the attendant. Have a doctor, nurse, or medical attendant (experienced in the use of the Protekt® 600 Stand lift ) present during the first few times the lift is used to transfer a new user.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The Protekt® 600 Stand lift allows a caregiver to lift and transfer a patient safely with minimum physical effort. Before attempting to lift anyone, one should practice operating the lift and explain to the patient the lifting procedures.
Arrange all necessary items (e.g. lift, sling, commode chair or wheelchair) properly for a smooth procedure.

• Special care must be taken with patients who cannot provide assistance while being lifted. (i.e. patients who are comatose, spastic, agitated or otherwise severely handicapped).
• The Protekt® 600 Stand should be used solely for transferring a patient from one object (beds, bathtubs, toilets, etc.) to another. The 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 lift base widened.
• Always keep the patient being lifted centered over the base and facing the caregiver operating the lifter.
• Do not roll casters over any object while the user is in the sling.
• Proactive Medical slings are specially designed to be used in conjunction with Proactive lifts. Do not use slings manufactured by other companies on the lift. Proactive Medical is not responsible for any consequence resulting from the use of non-Proactive slings on this equipment.
• Do not put anything (e.g. cushion, pad, etc…..) between the user and the sling. This may cause user to slide out of the sling and cause injury.
• Use only genuine Proactive Medical parts or components. Proactive Medical is not responsible for any consequence resulting from using non-Proactive parts and components.
• Service and repair of this equipment should be performed only by an authorized dealer. Proactive Medical is not responsible for any consequence resulting from any unauthorized service or repair.
