For your convenience Kerry Equipment has supplied a “User Records Chart” (located at the back of this manual). It is used to record patient lifting preferences to which mounting points and sling colours best suit them. (Hint: Copy the chart and keep the original with this manual) KNOB RECOMMENDED USAGE When using the standing hoist there are two recommended mounting points relevant to patient size. The front knobs are used for patients over 5’6” (165cm) and the back knobs are used for shorter patients ie: below 5’6” (165cm).

BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE CHARGING: Before the hoist can be operated the battery pack will need to be charged. Minimum 4 hours for flat battery. Please follow the instructions below. Plug the charger unit into the 240 Volt supply outlet. The unit is now ready to accept a battery that requires charging. To charge the battery, simply locate the charging plug securely into the female socket on the base of the battery. If a two-battery system is going to be used, replace the first battery once charged, with the second battery. Charge as above. NOTE: A battery pack may remain on charge indefinitely without any detrimental effects to the battery or charging unit.

BATTERY CARE: The hoist uses fully sealed lead acid batteries. They are made 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 INSTRUCTIONS The hoist requires periodical lubrication. These points are: 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 head bearing will need lubricating monthly. Simply spray TAC-2 up into the bearing while rotating the castor. 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.

BASE PIVOT POINTS and FOOT PEDAL All pivot points will need to be lubricated regularly with TAC-2 or similar lubricant. Simply spray the points for a second or two on either side. The hoist has to be turned onto its side for access to the following lubrication points. (To do this 2 people are required.) Both people are to stand on one side of the hoist. One near the push handle, the other by the side of the hoist. The person near the push handle locks the total lock castors. In conjunction with one another, pull the hoist towards the side, lowering the hoist onto the floor. You now have access to all the lubrication points under the base. i.e.: pivot points, leg lever and leg pivot. Simply spray TAC-2 on all the pivot points.
