Assembly

Remove the transport elastic band.

1. Connect hand control to bottom of battery holder. 2. Insert battery with terminals facing down. 3. Pull out elastic band and guide hand control through. Pull some of the cable through so the hand control does not fall to the floor when dropped.

Engange the break on the rear castors by stepping on the left pedal set. Open the legs.

Folding (Transport mode) Run the lifting arm all the way down, and remove battery. Fold the hoist in reverse order of assembly. Fix the sling bar back into the hook. It is possible to split the hoist into two separate parts by lifting the column from the chassis completely.

Lift up the lifting column and slide it down into the bracket on the chassis. Make sure it is placed completely in the bottom of chassis.

Checklist after assembly Do not use the product until you have checked all points in the checklist below

The column must be fixed with the locking handle on the back of the chassis. Pull the sling bar out of the transport hook

Use this checklist to verify that the hoist is properly installed and can operate correctly and safely before use. Ensure that the lifting arm, lifting column and sling bar are properly fixed and that there are no loose parts on the hoist. Make sure battery is charged (no lights on the battery indicator). Check that the hoist has no apparent damage or other faults. Perform a lift with load (approximately 50 kg)

Be careful not to get legs/arms/hands caught between the parts when raising/folding down the lifting column.

Safe working load (SWL)

Use only accessories and slings that are adjusted to fit the user, type of disability, size, weight and type of transfer.

The hoist is marked with Safe Working Load (SWL) The lowest SWL shall always be used if safe working load (SWL) differs between hoist, sling bar and body support unit

Safety devices

Emergency Stop / Emergency lowering

Molift Smart 150 is equipped with several safety devices, which are intended to prevent damage to personnel and equipment in the case of incorrect use.

Manual Emergency lowering

The hoist has an overload sensor preventing the hoist to be operated if the load exceeds SWL.

Electrical Emergency lowering

The lifting arm is hinged to prevent the arm and sling bar from squeezing the user. The actuator will not produce any force when moving downwards.

Emergency stop

The legs are folded together during transport to make the hoist as small as possible. When assembling the hoist, the legs must be opened to working position. The lifting column will not fix into the bracket if the legs are not adjusted beyond transport position - a safety feature ensures this.

Emergency stop

The electronics are disabled if overheated. Wait until the hoist has cooled down before using it again.

Electrical emergency lowering

The emergency stop shuts off the power when pushed in. Turn clockwise to reset (OK to operate when the green ring is visible). Push and hold button for electrical emergency lowering to lower lifting arm. The electrical emergency lowering function does not work when the emergency stop is activated.

Push / Pull handles Use the pull handles to move the hoist.

Manual emergency lowering

Do not push or pull the user, lifting arm or actuator. This may cause instability and hoist may tip over. The hoist shall only be used for movement over short distances. It is not a replacement for wheelchair or similar.

Brakes Pull handle on the actuator upwards to start emergency lowering, and the lifting arm moves downwards when loaded. The lowering will increase in speed the higher the handle is pulled. Release the handle gently. Releasing the handle too quickly may cause person injury or damage to the hoist. The manual emergency lowering function on the actuator should only be used when the electrical emergency lowering does not work.

Rear castors are equipped with brakes. Step on pedal to lock brakes. Flip up to unlock.

Battery Molift Smart 150 is equipped with a 14.4 V 2.6Ah NiMH battery. The battery has a life expectancy of approx. 500 charging cycles. Recharge battery upon receipt, and then every six months, to avoid battery failure. Used batteries must be disposed of as special waste according to local rules and regulations. Do not dispose in general waste

Batteries must be fully charged and drained completely a couple of times before it achieves full capacity. Also follow this procedure if the hoist has not been in use for a long period (4 weeks or more)

Battery indicator (LED) The battery indicator (LED) will illuminate and make a sound when battery level is low and the hoist requires charging. When this occurs the hoist will have sufficient power available for one full lifting cycle with max load. When battery is critically low it is only possible to lower the lifting arm.

Service indicator Number of lifts performed is calculated and recorded by the hoists electronics. After a certain period of operation a signal is given to indicate that service is required. Mode Service indicator No light Power saving (Stand by) Green Ready for use Yellow Order service Red Perform service Red + sound Perform service immediately

Service scope

EN DE

Service involves replacing the lifting motor and inspection/replacement of worn parts. This must be carried out by authorized personnel. Service is needed when the service light is red (calculated 10.000 lifts in SWL.)

Medical electrical equipment requires special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Portable or mobile radio communication equipment may affect the medical electrical equipment, and should be kept minimum 25 cm (10 inches) from the hoists electronics.

Transfer

Molift Smart 150 has a 4-point sling bar for different types of transfers; sitting, recumbent or ambulating.

Using slings

It is important that the sling has been tested with the individual user and for the intended lifting situation.

The sling bars hook design prevents sling to be inadvertently detached when mounted correct.

Plan the lifting operation in advance to ensure that it is as safe and smooth as possible. Remember to work ergonomically. Assess the risks and take notes. The assistant is responsible for the safety of the user.

Molift Smart 150 | BM09299 Rev C | www.etac.com

Slings made by other manufacturers We recommend only using Molift slings. Etac shall not be liable for faults or accidents that can occur when using slings made by other manufacturers.

Lifting and lowering

1. Check that the sling is correctly fitted around the user and that the strap loops are correctly fitted to the sling bar hooks. 2. Stretch the sling straps without lifting the user. Ensure that all four loops of the sling are securely fastened to avoid the user slipping or falling. 3. Lift user, and perform transfer.

The 4-point sling bar must always be positioned across the user, to prevent the user from unintentionally sliding out of the sling. 13

When moving the user, stand to the side of the person you are lifting. Make sure that arms and legs do not obstruct the seat, bed, etc. Keep eye contact with the user to help them feel safe.

Do not to use damaged or badly worn slings.

Read user manual for the sling prior to use.

Molift Smart 150 | BM09299 Rev C | www.etac.com

Transfer

Lowering into sitting

Try to position the user as low as possible (preferably resting the feet on the chassis) when transferring the hoist with a suspended user. In this way the centre of gravity will be low and reduce the risk of instability.

When transferring the user into sitting, the following techniques can be used when lowering the user as far back into the seat as possible: A P osition the user with the help of the push handle B P ush gently on the user’s knees C T ilt the seat backwards

Never lift the user higher than necessary to carry out a lift. Remember that wheels on a mobile lift must NOT be locked.

User must be facing hoist when lifting or lowering from or into a chair.

Never leave a user unattended in a lifting situation. Be careful during movement, the suspended user may swing during turns, stops and starts. Be careful when manoeuvring close to furniture to prevent the suspended user from colliding with these objects. The hoist shall not be used to lift or move users on sloping surfaces Avoid deep pile carpets, high thresholds, uneven surfaces or other obstacles that may block the castors. The hoist may become unstable if forced over such obstacles increasing the risk of tipping over.
