Locking the Wheels The rear wheels can be locked to prevent rotating and turning. The locking/unlocking of the wheels is done with the foot. Locked wheels during lifting can increase the risk of tipping. NOTE: When lifting, the wheels should be unlocked so that the lift can be moved to the patient’s centre of gravity. The wheels should be locked, however, if there is a risk of the lift rolling into the patient, for instance, when lifting from the floor.

(Viking M)

Mechanical Emergency Lowering Enabling the emergency lowering on Viking M: - Lift the emergency lowering control straight up, lift until the patient being lifted is on a firm surface, and the strap loops of the sling can be unhooked. (the function requires a load applied to the lift arm). Enabling the emergency lowering on Viking L and Viking XL: - Turn the emergency lowering control clockwise, repeat the movements until the patient being lifted is on a firm surface and the strap loops of the sling can be unhooked.

Electrical Emergency Lowering/Raising Use the arrow buttons on the operation panel (up or down) until the patient being lifted is on a firm surface and the strap loops of the sling can be unhooked.

Installation of Latches After installation, ensure that the spring loaded latches is taut against the sling bar and moves freely in the sling bar hook.

(Viking L / Viking XL)

Never move the lift by pulling on the actuator!

Always Lift Securely Always lift with the sling bar vertically above the patient’s centre of gravity. To obtain this, consider the placement of the lift in relation to the patient. Read the section “Position of the Lift when Lifting”, page 7. Before each lifting situation, ensure the lifting is performed correctly. Unbalanced lifting poses a tipping risk!

Position of the Lift when Lifting From/To:

Bed

Chair/Toilet Seat

Floor NOTE: Place a pillow under the patient’s head for increased performance and comfort. Always have the wheels locked when lifting from the floor.

Description of Functions and Operation (Viking XL)

Universal TwinBar 670 Universal TwinBar 670 (prod. no. 3156077) for a maximum load of 300 kg (660 lbs) is included with Viking XL. It is equipped with four hooks. The widest bar is intended for the upper strap loops of the sling and the short bar is for the strap loops of the leg supports. The wide sling bar provides for comfortable space for the upper body of the patient, even when the arms are on the inside of the sling. It is important that all four hooks be loaded when lifting.

Charging the Batteries 2 3 4

1

Battery Capacity Check the battery capacity by pressing the i-button (1). The following information can be read: 2 - Green light: More than 50% of the battery capacity remains. 3 - Orange light: 25–50% of the battery capacity remains. 4 - Orange light: 0–25% of the battery capacity remains. The indication lamps light up for about half a minute; they then go out. The battery capacity is also shown when the lift is in use.

To obtain maximum service life, it is important to charge the batteries regularly. We recommend charging after use of the lift or every night. Maximum charge is obtained after about 5 hours. When the batteries are fully charged, the charger switches to “trickle charging” automatically. During charging the lights shine alternatively (orange, orange, green). For deeply discharged batteries, the indication for initiated charging can be delayed a few minutes. Completed charging is indicated by a flashing green light. When the operation time is noticeably shortened, the batteries probably need changing. Stop charging and switch batteries. The lift cannot be charged with the emergency stop engaged. Never charge batteries in a wet area. NOTE! If the lift is not to be used for a long period, the battery should be connected to charging.

Charging With built-in charger:  heck that the charger cable is connected to the control box C outlet; see p. 5. Connect the charger cable to an electrical outlet (100-240 V AC). Completed charging is indicated by a flashing green light on the battery. If the charger cable is permanently stretched, it should be replaced in order to minimize the risk of the cable getting stuck and breaking. NOTE! The lift cannot be used when the charger cable is plugged into a wall socket. Old batteries are to be deposited at the nearest recycling station or given to personnel authorized by Liko/Hill-Rom.

Maximum Load Different maximum loads may apply to different products on the assembled lift unit, sling bar, sling and any other accessories used. For the assembled lift unit, the maximum load is always the lowest maximum load rating for any of the components. For example, a Viking M which is approved for 205 kg (450 lbs) can be equipped with a lifting accessory which is approved for 200 kg (440 lbs). In this case, the maximum load of 200 kg (440 lbs) applies to the assembled lift unit. Study the markings on the lift and lifting accessories or contact your Liko/Hill-Rom representative if you have any questions.

Recommended Lifting Accessories

Using lifting accessories other than those approved can entail a risk. Generally recommended sling bars and accessories for Viking mobile lifts are described below. When changing a sling bar or other lifting accessories, the highest possible lifting height of the lift is affected. Before changing lifting accessories you should always ensure that the lift, after change, can fulfil the desired lifting height in order to manage the lifting situations for which the lift is to be used. To select suitable slings and other lifting accessories, please see the “Lifting accessories” brochure. For additional guidance in selecting a sling, study the operating instructions for the respective sling models. There you will also find guidance for combining Liko’s sling bars with Liko’s slings. Contact your Liko/Hill-Rom representative or visit www.liko.com for advice and information on Liko’s product range. SlingBar Mini 220 Max. 205 kg (450 lbs)
