Intended Use

Maxi 500 is a mobile passive lift with a Safe

Working Load of 227 kg (500 lb), intended to be

used on horizontal surfaces for lifting and

transferring in hospitals, nursing homes or other

health care facilities where the resident/patient:

• Sits in a wheelchair;

• Has no capacity to support him/herself;

• Cannot stand unsupported and is not able to bear

weight, not even partially;

• Is dependant on the caregiver in most situations;

or where the resident/patient:

• Is passive;

• Might be almost or is completely bedridden;

• Is often stiff or has contracted joints;

• Is totally dependent on the caregiver.

The lift is for transferring residents/patients only. It is

not intended to be a transport device or to be used to

transport a resident/patient over any long distance.

The lift is to be used for patients within the specified

weight limit indicated on the lift (500 lb or 227 kg)

and the specified environmental conditions described

in this manual.

The Maxi 500 shall always be handled by a trained

caregiver, who shall continuously attend to the

resident/patient during lift application and operation,

and in accordance with the instructions outlined in

these Operating and Product Care Instructions.

The Maxi 500 is intended to be used with clip slings

or loop slings, depending on the spreader bar. Use

only slings that are designed for Maxi 500.

Safety Instructions

WARNING: Only manufactu-

rer designated partsdesigned

for the purpose shall be used

for the Maxi 500, in order to

avoid injuries attributable to

the use of inadequate parts.

WARNING: Unauthorized

modifications or repairs on

the Maxi 500 will affect its

safety and invalidate any war-

ranty. The manufacturer will

not accept responsibility for

any accidents, incidents or

lack of performance that oc-

cur as a result of any such un-

General

• Always carry out the recommended daily maintenance

before using the lift.

• Always maneuver the lift with the handles provided.

• Do not attempt to push or pull a loaded lift over a floor

obstruction which the castors are unable to ride over eas-

ily, including steps, door thresholds or moving sidewalk.

• Do not push the lift at a speed which exceeds a slow

walking pace (3 km/hour or 0.8 meter/second).

• An assessment of the suitability for transfer of a patient

who is connected to electrodes, catheters or other medi-

cal devices must be conducted by qualified personnel

before performing a transfer.

• This mobile patient lift must be used by a caregiver

trained to these instructions and qualified to work with

the patient to be transferred and should never be used by

a patient on their own.

• Always ensure that controls and safety features are used

only in accordance with the rules specified in this man-

ual. Never attempt to force a control or button on the lift.

• While the base of the lift can be opened to ease transfer

of a patient, it should be kept closed during transport.

• Avoid any impact during transportation.

• Do not put fingers, hands or feet where space is limited

(see image below). This could pinch, cut, or seriously

harm any body parts. This includes spaces between the

lift base and floor (1), between actuator cab and mast

tubing (2) and between spreader bar block and boom tub-

ing (3).

Safety Instructions

Shock prevention

• Do not touch a damaged power cord. Electrically

live equipment can result in serious injuries. If

the lift or charger has any exposed or damaged

wires, contact your local ARJO representative

immediately.

• Check nameplate for voltage and cycle require-

ments. These requirements differ by country. Do

not attempt to use the lift in an area that has a

different voltage and cycle requirement.

• Do not attempt to expose, service or repair the

lift, battery or charger. If any unit is malfunction-

ing, contact your local ARJO representative.

Equipment warning labels

Inspect all precautionary labels on the equipment.

Order and replace all labels that cannot be easily

read.

CAUTION: Keep all components of the

lift clean and dry, and have electrical and

mechanical safety checkpoints done as

instructed in the Care and Preventive

Maintenance section of this manual.
