Promove Child 1 Sling Instructions

Hoisting
Pass the yellow strap through the two yellow handles,
bring the strap back on itself and pass through the ring
(as a larks foot knot). Pull tight. Repeat with the blue
strap through the blue handles and the two white straps
through the two uppermost rear handles.
Place the loops over the hooks on the spreader bar of
the hoist using the most appropriate loop on each strap
depending on the size of the individual and whether the
individual is to be maintained in an upright or reclined
position.
PLEASE NOTE: The hoist straps are not compatible with
hoists using clip attachments, and the operative must
be sure they understand the operation of the hoist and
its suitability for the size and weight of the individual
before usage.
BEWARE: Application of larks foot knot will reduce
the safe working load of the handles.
Benefits to you
All sling models provide a safe and comfortable means
of moving and lifting a disabled individual by two or more
persons. The models are ideal for holidays and days out,
allowing access to many more experiences in places
where you cannot take a hoist.
All Child Sling models have a safe working load (SWL)
of 10stone (140lb / 63kg).
All Adult Standard Slings have a safe working load (SWL)
of 45stone (630lb / 285kg).
Maintenance and replacement
Storage: When not in use keep the sling and accessories
clean and dry in the bag provided. Avoid excessively hot
or humid conditions or direct sunlight.
Lifespan: Under optimal storage conditions and without
use: 10 years. Occasional and appropriate use without
signs of wear and tear and optimal storage and care:
six years. Frequent use: if the sling or any component
appears faded, worn or frayed it should be destroyed
and replaced.
Monitoring: Visually examine the sling and accessories
before each use paying special attention to stitching.
The sling should be examined at least once every six
months by a competent person and recorded, using the
unique serial number on each sling.
Laundering: All components should be washed at 72°C in
a mild detergent and the washing component of the cycle
should be kept at this temperature for at least 10 minutes.
Do not bleach, do not tumble dry. If contaminated by
oil, cleaning materials or unknown substances, the sling
should be destroyed and replaced.
Any malfunction or fault with the Promove sling should
be reported to your Manual Handling Coordinator and
conveyed to the manufacturer.
