ClassicSling
System
ClassicSling enables a comfortable and secure seated posture and gives the patient a feeling of security. It is
designed to be left in the chair after the transfer is completed, which means that the patient sits on the sling.
ClassicSling is available in two models, with or without commode opening. It provides support all the way from
the hollow of the knees up to the shoulders. ClassicSling is designed for use in most common lifting situations
such as transfers from bed to wheelchair, etc.

Functional inspection

Visual and mechanical inspection
Check the condition and function of the sling regularly. Always inspect the product after laundering. Check to ensure
that seams and material are free from damage. Check to ensure that fabric is not worn or faded. Apply load to the
device and check to ensure that clasps, handles, etc. withstand heavy load. If there are signs of wear, the product
must be discarded.
Always read the manual
Always read the manuals for all assistive devices used during a transfer.
Keep the manual where it is accessible to users of the product.
Do not leave the patient unattended during a transfer situation.
To prevent discomfort and the risk of the patient sliding out of the sling, trial fit the sling carefully. First, apply the
sling's back loops to the slingbar, and then apply the leg support loops. Use a slingbar that has been tested.
Note that there may be a risk of the patient tipping forward when a sling with standard (not separate) leg supports is used.
The lowest allowable safe working load always determines the safe working load of the assembled system.
Always check the safe working loads for the lift and accessories before use.
Contact your dealer if you have any questions.
ClassicSling can only be applied when the patient is fully recumbent
