Basics in Transferring a Patient
The Lifting Sling: A lifting sling with four to six straps designed for mounting on hooks should be used when using an Vancare
G-Series Lift Carry Bar. Place the straps on the hooks and make sure the loops are not in the latch so the straps do not
unintentionally fall off.
Working with the Vancare G-Series Lift: The Vancare G-Series Lift moves freely in the track system and does not have any
special requirements for space or power in connection with moving. Attention can be fully focused on the user's functional level
and the caregivers technique. The patient should only be lifted to the extent that she/he is clear of the surface and should be
moved at this height.
Attaching the Lifting Sling: Place the straps from the lifting sling on the hooks of the hanger assembly. Start with the
uppermost set of straps (from the back) and then take the lowest set of straps (from the legs).

Emergency Stop

The G-Series Lift unit also has an Emergency Shut-off feature that allows the operator to shut the power to the lift completely in
the event of an emergency. By pulling once on the RED emergency lowering cord, located on the underside of the lift, the lift
will immediately stop and all its functions will be disabled. The "ON" indicator light will turn off, and the Emergency Shut-off
button located inside the lift will pop out. After an emergency, the lift must be inspected prior to restoring to use. In order to
restore power to the lift, the tab must be pressed back into the lift.
!
Do not pull the red cord forcefully. For assistance after an emergency, contact Vancare Service at 1.800.694.4525

Manual Emergency Lowering

The manual emergency and raising should only be used if the emergency lowering does not work. A proper safety ladder or
stool may be required to remove the plug from the cover.
Remove the round plug from the lift cover and use 3/16" or 2.5 mm Allen key to rotate the motor in the up or down direction.
!
Caution: DO NOT attempt to use the lift while using manual lowering.
