6.3 Moving the Hoist along the track system

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, damage to the hoist and/or to the obstruction.
After use, the Hoist should be located at the correct end of the track system for re-charging.
When needed, the Hoist should be moved along the track using the following appropriate method:
To Traverse the Hoist, you must first lower the carry bar to an appropriate height to hold onto with both hands.
Then the user must hold the carry bar with both hands either side of the lift tape, and push or pull the Hoist along the track in
the intended direction of travel to the required destination.
This process applies when moving the Hoist with and without a patient in the sling.
When there is a patient being transferred, ensure they are at a reasonable height above the ground to ensure they are not being
dragged along the floor, or hit any obstructions.
Always ensure the direction of travel is clear of any obstacles.
NEVER pull the Hoist along the track using the handset as this could have a detrimental
effect on the performance of the Hoist.

6.4 Handset Storage

The handset is stored in the handset case provided. The handset dock will be installed onto the wall
at either end of the track system. This dock is also the charging dock for the hoist as it is charged
through the handset. To store the handset after use, traverse the hoist back to its charging location
and dock the handset into the handset dock. At the end of each use of the hoist, the handset
should be returned to the dock.
To place the handset into the dock correctly, the front face of the handset will
face the wall with the attachment hook facing away. The handset should slot
into the dock nicely. For further details see "Handset Charging". Always
ensure that the handset is stored in the correct orientation as shown in the
image. This ensures that the handset complies with the standards stated in
section 7.4.
The handset can also be stored onto the carry bar as a secondary storage
option. Always ensure that the orientation remains the same.

6.5 Charging the Hoist

Handset Charging

The CP hoist is designed for handset charging. A charging dock should have been fitted onto the wall nearby, usually at the end
of the ceiling track system.
The charging dock is also used as a handset hook, meaning at the end of each use of the hoist, the hoist should be traversed to
the charging docks location and the handset should be placed into the charging dock for placement and charging.
This will ensure that the batteries are charged on a regular basis for peak performance and maximum life expectancy. The hoist
may remain connected to the charger indefinitely because the hoist has a built-in regulator, removing the danger of
overcharging.
