SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.

1.

For safety precautions only properly trained personal should use the hoist. The KH 400 G Quik-Stand is manufactured and tested to handle a MAXIMUM safe working load of 150 Kg.

2.

The KH 400 G Quik-stand is manufactured and tested with safety and function for the carer and patients as the utmost importance. No parts should be removed from the hoist without approval this may create an unsafe working condition.

3.

EMERGENCY STOP: The KH 400 G QUIK-STAND is fitted with an emergency stop. This is the big red switch, located on the front of the controller. If there is a need to use this, simply depress the switch and it will automatically lock the position and cut all power to the electrical system. To disengage the emergency stop switch after it has been depressed, turn the red switch in a clockwise direction and the switch should return to its original position.

4.

EMERGENCY LOWERING AND RAISING. The emergency lowering/raising buttons can be used to lower/raise the lifter if there is an electrical or handset failure. The switches are located on the controller under the big red emergency stop switch. Simply press (using a ballpoint pen or similar object. DO NOT use a pin or compass) the button which you require. To halt the process, remove the pressure applied to the switch.

5.

LIFTING OF PATIENTS. For safety precautions only properly trained personal should use the lifter. When connecting the sling to the patient, please ensure the fitting instructions are adhered too. (Located on the sling or in the sling instruction brochure).

6.

Serial No., Model No., and Date of Manufacture are located on side of upright.

7.

The hoist should not be used on rough or sloping surfaces. ie. Wheel chair ramps etc, and it is not recommended that the hoist be used outdoors.

8.

HOIST USAGE This hoist is designed only as an aid to assist in the standing of patients. Unless used in Conjunction with the seating sling in which case this is permitable for patient transfers, However only in a low position. For further instruction consult the sling brochure supplied With your sling(s).

9.

While all care has been taken to eliminate all possible trap points on the hoist, there is potential for trapping your feet between the castors and legs, to avoid injury all personnel are to keep feet clear of this area during use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The KH 400 G Quik Stand is designed and manufactured with safety and function for both patient and carer as the utmost importance. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: 1.1

INSTALLATION OF BATTERY PACK.

Before the QUIK-STAND can be operated the battery pack will need to be placed on charge (See 2.2 - in the "Battery charging and care" section - For Charging instructions). Minimum of 4 hours for flat battery. When the battery pack is fully charged, remove the battery from the charger and place on the lifter. Simply locate the battery on the mounting bracket and clip the release lever into the secure position. The Quick - Stand is now ready for use.

BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE 1. MOUNTING OF THE CHARGING UNIT. Kerry Equipment recommends that the charging unit be mounted on a wall out of the way of normal traffic, at approximately waist high, close to an electrical outlet. This will help in easy attachment and removal of the battery when charging is required. For further instructions on charger mounting, please consult the charger mounting instructions supplied with the charging unit. 2. CHARGING Before the KH 400 G can be operated the battery pack will need to be charged. Please follow the instructions below. 2.1 Plug the charger unit (Fig 10) into the 240-Volt supply outlet. The unit is now ready to accept a battery that requires charging; a GREEN L.E.D. (ON) will be displayed. 2.2 To charge the battery, simply locate the battery on the mount bracket and clip into position. (The GREEN and ORANGE L.E.D. on the front of the charger will be displayed). The battery is fully charged when the ORANGE L.E.D. is OFF and only the GREEN L.E.D. is displayed. 2.3 If a two-battery system is going to be used, replace the first battery once charged, with the second battery. Charge using the same procedure as above.

NOTE: A battery pack may remain on charge indefinitely without any detrimental effects to the battery or charging unit.

Fig 10 Charger unit shown without battery attached. 3. BATTERY CARE The KH 400 G uses fully sealed lead acid batteries. Which are designed to be recharged on a regular basis. To care for your batteries and obtain the maximum life DO NOT allow the batteries to run totally flat before recharging. The controller is fitted with an audio low battery warning alarm. When this warning alarm sounds complete the lift process, then change the battery and recharge. Kerry Equipment recommends that a 2-battery system be used; this allows one battery to always be on charge while the other is in use, and hence the hoist may never be out of service with a flat battery.

MAINTENANCE, INSPECTION AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS The KH 400 G QUIK-STAND hoist requires servicing at a recommended period of 6 monthly intervals to ensure optimal operation at all times. If the hoist is subject to large amounts of use, then it is recommended to have the hoist dismantled by a qualified service personnel and inspected for signs of wear at 2-year periods. This is dependant on use. In the unlikely event of fault or substantial wear contact your place of purchase or Kerry equipment directly. LUBRICATION The KH 400 G QUIK-STAND requires periodical lubrication. These points are: 1.

CASTORS It is always best practice to remove all hair and lint from the castors as soon as possible, always allowing free movement of all the wheels. The castors need to be lubricated monthly (Use TAC-2 only). This involves: 1.1 The Castor head bearing will need lubricating. Simply spray TAC-2 up into the bearing while rotating the castor (Fig 11). 1.2

KH400G

The wheel also requires lubricating every month. To do this the wheel must be unbolted and removed from the castor frame. TAC-2 can then be sprayed into the hub centre to lubricate the internal bearings (Fig 12).

PIVOT POINTS All pivot points will need to be lubricated with TAC-2 or similar lubricant. Simply spray for 2 seconds on each side of the recommended points monthly. The hoist has to be turned onto its side for access to the following lubrication points. (To do this 2 people are required.) Follow the instruction below: 2.0.1 Both people are to stand on one side of the lifter. One near the push handle, the other by the side of the lifter. 2.0.2

The person near the push handle locks the total lock castors.

2.0.3

In conjunction with one another pull the lifter towards the side, lowering the lifter onto its side on the floor.

You now have access to all the lubrication points. ie: pivot points, leg lever and leg pivot. Simply spray TAC-2 on all the pivot points for 2 seconds. 2.1
