Solo HighBack Sling Mod. 25
Instructions for Use
Solo HighBack Sling holds the patient comfortably and securely. With its innovative "wrap-around" design, Solo HighBack Sling
is very easy to put on and remove. Solo HighBack Sling is designed for adaptation to patients without the need for individual
adjustments. A properly fitted and carefully applied Solo HighBack Sling ensures a high degree of comfort and a good feeling
of security for the patient.
Solo HighBack Sling provides support for the entire body, and gives a slightly reclined sitting posture, which is appropriate for
patients with poor torso stability. For larger sizes of the sling, a combination with a twin bar 670 can be the perfect choice.
Solo HighBack Sling is recommended for lifting to and from the bed, wheelchair or toilet.
It is important to choose the right size to ensure optimal comfort and safety. A patient may be at risk of sliding out of a sling
which is too large, while a sling that is too small may be tight in the crotch and cause discomfort.
The Solo HighBack Sling can be used along with all of Liko's overhead and mobile lifts. You can choose between the overhead
lifts LikoGuard™, Likorall™, and Multirall™ or the mobile lifts Golvo™, Viking™, Uno™, and Liko™ M220/M230.
In this document, the person being lifted is referred to as the patient and the person helping them is referred to as the caregiver.
IMPORTANT!
Lifting and transferring a patient always involves a certain level of risk. Read the instructions for use for both the patient
lift and lifting accessories before use. It is important to completely understand the contents of the instructions for use.
The equipment should only be used by trained personnel. Ensure that the lifting accessories are suitable for the lift used.
Exercise care and caution during use. As a caregiver, you are always responsible for the patient's safety. You must be aware
of the patient's ability to make it through the lifting situation. If something is unclear, contact the manufacturer or supplier.
