3. Intended Use - Overview of the CP200 Portable Hoist The CP200 hoist is a lifting aid used by health care professionals to transfer clients. The hoist makes it possible to move mobility impaired individuals with minimal strain or risk to the caregiver, while providing complete safety, dignity and comfort for the client. The CP200 hoist is one of three components that make up this technology. The other components, the sling and the track system are the further two components that make up the complete system. The sling is a specially designed fabric accessory that attaches to the hoist by means of a carry bar and strap system, and holds an individual while the lift, or transfer takes place. The sling is supplied separately from the hoist at the initial time of purchase. Please refer to any user guides supplied with the sling and reference them while reviewing this manual. The track is the means to operate the hoist in a defined route. The track affords the carer / user a means to “travel” in a designated safe route enabling the patient different uses around the “travel” of the hoist.

7. Attaching the Hand Controller to Hoist A sturdy ladder or steps may be required in order to access the underside of the hoist to re-attach the hand controller. Caution should be used when this is required. Should the cord that connects the hoist to the hand controller become disengaged from the underside of the hoist it must be re-connected in order for the hoist to work properly. The hand controller may become disconnected for the following reasons: a. b. c.
The hoist is pulled along the track by the hand controller. The hand controller cord accidentally gets wrapped around an object while a hoist or transfer is being performed. It is accidentally pulled out by the carer or the individual being hoisted.
The hand controller will be connected to the hoist (dependant on the orientation in which the hoist is being operated under – there is a hand controller socket on both the upper and lower hoist case) A connection plug, located at the end of the hand controller wire will make the connection to the hoist via mating together of the male and female sockets from the hand controller to the hoist itself. This connection can only be made when both the hand controller plug and the hoist socket are in the correct orientation. Insert the plug into the socket in the hoist and slowly rotate until you feel the plug locating into the socket. Once fitment is made and both connections are aligned, press the socket home until a click is heard which will indicate the connection has been made securely. Perform a brief test to ensure proper connectivity. Turn the hoist ON and OFF and also use the hand controller to raise and lower the carry bar. If these functions all work correctly, then the hand controller is correctly installed to the hoist. If the hoist does not work as expected after connection of the hand controller to the device, then please check firstly that the unit has power to operate. This will be indicated by the LED indicator status on the unit – (fig 2.) below
LED indicators
Fig 2 13
If no LED indicators are visible and the hoist is in the “ON” position, then the hoist will need to be re-charged. If after/during the charging process there is no indication of a charge present from the LED’s, then contact your local authorised dealer for service.
The image below shows the hand controller plug connector – this connection is made to the hoist (fig 3.)
Note the orientation of the socket pins – this will only fit into the hoist socket in one position – once aligned press the connection home

8. Operation Always, before using the CP200 hoist system, the hoist, track/gantry and sling must be visually checked for any unusual wear, or damage. Refer to the user manuals with each piece of supplied equipment to determine what should be checked. Should anything look unusual, contact your local Prism Medical UK dealer prior to use.
8.1 Start- up- Turning the hoist on/ Off Shown in the image opposite are the 3 functions of the hand controller for the hoist. a
a. b. c.
b
“UP” when depressed “DOWN” when depressed “EMERGENCY LOWER” when depressed
c
To operate the hoist, it must first be turned ON via the “ON” switch on the hoist itself (see (fig 5.) opposite. The indicator LED’s located on the hoist will turn GREEN to indicate power is available. The hand controller will “wake up” once any functionality button is depressed. Fig 5 If the hoist fails to turn ON at any time, ensure that both the hand controller and the hoist itself have the required charge to operate both effectively.
PLEASE NOTE: The hoist is NOT operational whilst in the charging state.
To conserve battery power, the hoist will automatically shut off after approximately 2 minutes of non-use (this is not a fault with the unit). If the batteries of the hoist are low and require charging, the indicator light located on the hoist will turn RED and flash (see LED status indications further in the user manual) depending upon the level of discharge and an audible buzzing alarm will sound when the level gets critical until charging takes place. 15
Operation 8.2
Raising and lowering the carry bar / hoist
By pressing the UP or the DOWN arrow button, the carry bar/hoist can be lowered or raised to the correct height for attaching the sling or positioning an individual. See (fig 6a) below It is recommended that the carer (operator) hold the carry bar with one hand while this is being done so that it will not accidentally sway and/ or come into contact with an individual or close object.

The hoist can also be inverted at the operator’s discretion where the hoist itself lowers. The hoist is fixed in the position shown in (fig 6b) and the lift tape will lower, whereas in (fig 6c.) the hoist lowers. This can aid in the attachment of the carry bar and the sling. The functional operation is exactly the same but the hoist moves as opposed to the lifting tape
fig 6c
The hoist can also be operated by use of the buttons on the hoist itself, functions available are as per handset- lifting, lowering and emergency lowering. 16
8.3
Moving the hoist along the track / gantry system
The hoist will be located, after or before use, at the end of the track system where it can easily be re-charged. It can be moved along the track to a position directly above the person to be hoisted in the following manner: Lower the carry bar to a comfortable height so that it can easily be grabbed by your hand. Move the hoist along the track gently pushing the carry bar to the required position where the person can be safely loaded into the sling.
NEVER pull the hoist along the track using the handset
Always use extreme care when moving the hoist along the track. Watch out for and avoid any obstructions that may cause injury to the individual in the sling and/ or damage to the hoist
8.4
Return the hoist to the recharging position
The hoist at some point, will require its internal batteries recharging, along with the hand controller to continue its use on the track system. The hoist can be charged whilst at any point on the track but it should be undertaken at a point which is close to a mains socket and out of the way of moving traffic to prevent any injury to users in the area

8.5
Hand control storage
The hand controller should he held in a safe location when not in use to prevent any untoward use and to prevent damage to the hand controller itself.
8.6
Shutdown process
To power off the unit, press the red switch on the main hoist body to off (o). This will shut down the hoist with immediate effect. The CP200 also offers a sleep mode, after 30 seconds the unit will power down with the led status off. Upon pressing a control button, the unit will reactivate and function.

9. Charging the Hoist The charger for the hoist can be connected to any mains supply in a suitable location to the area which it is being used within. To prolong the life of the batteries utilized by the hoist, the hoist should be charged on a regular basis. It is recommended that the hoist be left on charge when not in operation, and at the end of each day. This will maximise the life cycle of the batteries and also provide greater opportunity to use the hoist if it is always left in a charged state for immediate use. The hoist may remain connected to the charger indefinitely since the hoist has a built-in regulator, eliminating the danger of overcharging. Refer to previously outlined sections on how to move the hoist along the track. As a general rule it is recommended that the carry bar be raised to a height so that it will not interfere / hit anything or anyone.
Do not move the hoist with excess speed or force when locating it in the area to recharge the batteries. No excessive force is required to move the hoist and remember to have the carry bar adjusted to a safe height when doing so to avoid coming into contact with other objects in its path
Use only the charger that was supplied with the hoist. Use of any other charger will void all warranties and may cause damage to the hoist
9.1 Isolation from the mains supply The equipment can be isolated from the mains supply by the disconnection of the power adapter when charging from the mains outlet or disconnection of the adapter connector from the hand controller whilst charging. The device is reliant on battery power for use – the device should not be used whilst in the charging state.
18
10. Emergency lowering The hoist is not electrically driven along the track system in use. Movement of the hoist along this system will be controlled by the operator of the device – In effect, the operator has full control of the movement while the user is installed into the hoist system. The hoist does however have an emergency lower feature to be utilised in the situations that arise where this may be a requirement. The feature can be used by pressing and holding button “C” in the image below.
Should this feature be used on a continual basis in relation to the functionality of the hoist being suspect, contact your local authorised dealer immediately. The hoist unit must be inspected prior to restoring to use
c
The image of the controller opposite shows 3 functionality buttons. Two of these are for the operation (UP / DOWN) of the device, while the third one (indicated as “c” in the image is the emergency lower button
The operation of the button indicated above on the hand controller correlates to the same output from the operation of the round button shown in the image opposite from the operating panel of the hoist unit itself. Emergency lower button should only be used/ if lower button does not operate. E lower bypasses the main PCB so in case of failure patient can be lowered safely. 19
