Invacare RHL450-1 User Manual page 37

 Use the straps or handles on the side and the back of the
sling to guide the patient's hips as far back as possible into
the seat for proper positioning.
4. Position the patient over the seat with their back against the back
of the chair.
5. Begin to lower the patient either by opening the control valve or by
pressing the DOWN () button.
6. With one assistant behind the chair and the other operating the
patient lift, the assistant behind the chair will pull back on the grab
handle (on select models) or sides of the sling to seat the patient
well into the back of the chair. This will maintain a good center of
balance and prevent the chair from tipping forward.
7. Leave the sling in place.

Remove only if a divided leg sling was used.
8. To return to the seating surface, reverse procedures for lifting the
patient, operation and sling attachments.
WARNING
Be sure to check the sling attachments each time the sling is
removed and replaced to ensure that it is properly attached
before the patient is removed from the bed or chair.
