●
this manual.
Set up the chair ready for use.
●
Confirm that the chair operates properly.
●
5.2 General Guidelines for Use
Medical advice is beyond the parameters of this

Follow
standard
●
procedures when operating the chair.
Operators work together and maintain control of

coordinated movements to operate the chair.
Ferno recommends that a third trained person serve

as a "spotter" while the chair is being moved up or
down stairs.
Lift only the weight you can safely handle. Use
●
additional help when working with heavy loads
(patient and equipment).
Stay with the patient at all times.

Always use patient restraints to secure the patient
