102 Purpose

The sling is used in combination with a mobile active lifter to assist the user

from a sitting to a standing position in hospitals, at nursing homes, instituti-

ons, and in

private homes.

The sling and the active lifter are designed to lift or transfer a person who is

capable of actively participating in the process. The user must also have good

communication skills.

Conditionsforuse

The use of the sling is subject to the following:

• The user can balance in a sitting position and has strength in the lower and

upper body and can communicate

• The sling is used by trained staff or persons who have been instructed in the

use of the sling in question.

• The correct size of sling is used.

• The maximum nominal load of 205 kg must not be exceeded.

• The helper pays attention to the well-being of the user when using the sling.

• The sling is used with the active lifter from Guldmann.

103 Important/Precautions

• Read the instructions carefully before using the sling.

• The slings maximum load must never be exceeded.

• The sling may only be used to lift a person.

• Before a sling is used, it must be examined according to point 2.02.

• Never use a sling that is too big for the user.

• Possible repairs must only be made by the manufacturer.

104 Use

If there is any doubt about the selection or use of a lifting sling, please

contact your supplier.

Important!

Plan the move. Avoid leaving the user in the sling unattended.

Do not start to lift until it has been checked that the user cannot get trapped

and that the sling does not catch on the bed, wheelchair etc. The user’s head,

arms, hands and feet must not be in danger of becoming trapped. Be careful

with any tubes and wires that are attached to the user and/or equipment.

Check that the hand control and hand control cable is free of the lifter, user

and other objects before the lifting boom is activated up or down moved.

Guldmann shall not be liable for faults or accidents due to incorrect use of the

standing sling, or for reasons of inadequate attention on the part of the helper

or user. If the sling is used in combination with products that are not manufac-

tured by Guldmann, a risk assessment must be made by qualied staff.

Be careful when applying the standing sling. Check that the straps have been

mounted correctly and into place in the lifting boom’s hooks before starting to

lift the user. Before the lift is performed make sure that the lifting straps are

still in the correct position.

Placing the sling, look at section 6-7

202 Theowner’sdailymaintenanceduty

Check the lifting sling for wear and damage before use according to the

following checklist which is not intended to represent all potential inspection

steps. Potential damage may vary. Judgment of inspector/site prevails.

Slinginspectionchecklist

Before using a Guldmann sling / accessory check the following:

Istheslingclean?

Follow facility specic infection control procedure.

Isthesling’slabelpresent,legibleandcomplete?

Missing, illegible or incomplete sling label(s) could make identication of

appropriate size of the sling, function of sling, and or weight limit capacity of

the sling impossible.

Aretheliftingstrapsandstitchesintact?

• Look for broken or worn stitches

• Look for knots in straps

Conclusion

If the sling suffers from one or more of the above mentioned conditions then

it must be taken out of service regardless of the weight of the person to be

lifted.

203 Disposalofslings

Slings are disposed of by incineration. By proper incineration polyester

will be degraded to carbon dioxide and water.

300 Serviceandlifetime

301 Safety/serviceinspections

In accordance with international standard EN/ISO 10535 “Hoist for the

transfer of disabled persons – Requirements and test methods” an inspection

must be performed every 6 month according to the following instructions,

which is not intended to represent all potential inspection steps. Potential

damage may vary. Judgment of inspector/site prevails.

SafeOperatingPracticeswithSlings

Considerations for damaged or defective slings and taking them out of

service:

Withdraw the sling from service if one or more of the following conditions are

present:

1. chemical or caustic burns

2. melting or charring of any part of the sling

3. snags, punctures, tears or cuts

4. broken or worn stitches

5. missing, illegible or incomplete sling tag

6. knots in any part of the sling

7. abrasion

8. other visible damage that causes doubt as to the strength of the sling

Sling inspection is done for the protection of the user, the caregiver, and the

overall hospital site safety. A sling inspection system has additional benet.

Systematic sling inspection will assist in the identication of damage trends,

potentially leading to cost effective suggestions and results. The inspection

process can also help to identify inventory duplicity in certain sling types and

sizes.

Slinginspectionsystem

Development of a specic procedure and program for the inspection of

slings at your facility is your best safeguard. Consider employing a three

part system of inspection. Slings that are removed from service and are not

capable of repair should be disposed of so they are unt for any future use

and can not nd a way back into active inventory.

1)Initial

This level of inspection is done at the time that the sling is received into your

facility. The inspector should ensure that no damage has occurred during

transit, and also verify that the sling work load limits match those contained in

the manufacturer’s catalogue. If your facility documents the sling inspection

process through written inspection records, the paper trail should begin at this

stage

2)Frequent

The frequent level of inspection should be done by the sling user before each

use. The sling should be examined and removed from service if damage is

detected. The sling user should also determine that the sling is proper for the

user conditions, care task required and the required weight capacity.

3)Periodic

Your facility might want to consider implementing a program for a periodic

level of inspection at regular intervals. The interval should be based upon

the frequency of use, severity of the service cycle and information derived

through the inspection process. Recommendations to prevent damage and

enhance service life could be made by staff that perform the periodic inspec-

tions. If written inspection records are maintained, they should always refe-

rence the unique sling identication number, and be updated to record the

condition of the sling. Not intended to represent all potential inspection steps

or all potential aspects of product management program. Judgment of inspec-

tor/site prevails.

Slinginspectiontechnique

The sling inspection procedure should be thorough, systematic and con-

sistent; both visual and “hands on” inspection techniques are recommen-

ded. Certain forms of damage are far more discernable through hands-on

inspection, than by visual inspection. For example, fabric stiffness, crushed

webbing, as well as, thinning fabric can be identied through tactile inspec-

tion. Visual inspection alone may not reveal all forms of sling damage. Once

signs of damage have been identied, do not downgrade the work load limit

of the sling, with the intent of continuing to use it, but at limited capacity or

frequency. This is sometimes done to get more service life out of a damaged

sling. The operating rule and standard should be: intact = use; damage = do

not use.

Consider the practice of documenting sling inspections through written

inspection records. The documentation should include information such as:

the name of manufacturer, the sling stock number, width and length, the

unique sling identication number (important in differentiating similar slings),

as well as the condition of the sling. Other important information might also

include the date it was received or put into use at your facility and any special

features (if applicable). A benecial outcome of an inspection program would

be the realization of repetitive forms of damage and the analysis that would

lead to specic recommendations.

302 Lifetime

The life of the sling is individual and depends on how it is used, washed etc.

Before use the sling must be examined according to description in section

2.02 and if it does not meet the inspection requirements, it must be discarded

if necessary.
