Note: On delivery of your hoist, check that the usage indicator seal fixed across the emergency lowering switch (see Fig. 1) is intact. If it is broken, contact ARJO Ltd or their appointed distributor, before using the hoist.

The ARJO Lisa may be used on gentle slopes with caution. Use only ARJO slings that have been specifically designed for the Lisa. If ARJO Flites (disposable slings) are to be used with the Lisa, then always refer to the separate operating instructions for ARJO Flites reference part No. MAX01720, as well as these instructions before using. ARJO slings with head support have two pockets at the head section which should contain plastic reinforcement pieces during use. Always ensure these reinforcement pieces have been inserted into the sling pockets before using the sling.

This product has been designed and manufactured to provide you with many years of trouble free use, however, this product does contain components that with regular use are subject to wear. Some of these parts are safety critical to the operation of the hoist and will need examining and servicing on a regular basis and must be replaced when necessary (see also “Care of Your Lisa” section).

Although manufactured to a high standard, the Lisa should not be left for extended periods in humid or wet areas. Do not under any circumstances spray the Lisa with water, e.g. under the shower.

The Lisa has a maximum load capacity of 120 kg (264 lbs) which must not be exceeded. All Lisa slings will support 120 kg (264 lbs) and are colour coded for size as follows:Brown -

Extra small

XS

Red -

Small

S

Yellow -

Medium

Some information contained in these instructions may become outdated, due to improvements made to this product in the future. If you have any questions regarding these instructions or your Easy Rider, please contact ARJO or their approved distributor. ARJO’s policy is one of continuous development, and therefore reserve the right to change specifications without notice.

A circular label is fitted to the hoist jib for quick colour to size reference, (see Fig. 1). A range of special purpose slings are available as accessories, for these or special size slings contact ARJO Ltd. Before using your Lisa, familiarise yourself with the various parts as illustrated in fig. 1. and thoroughly read and understand these operating instructions. The Lisa is an easily transported patient hoist, that has been designed primarily to provide a convenient patient lifting facility for environments where permanent hoists, for many reasons are unavailable. When not in use, always keep the Lisa in the carrier and shoulder bag provided. All references to the patient in these instructions refer to the person being lifted, and references to the attendant refer to the person who operates the hoist. References to left and right of the hoist in these instructions are as viewed from the rear of the Lisa.

mast. Position the bottom of the mast into the mast socket in the chassis, moving the mast / jib assembly to a vertical position will allow the parts to engage easier. Rotate slightly, if necessary, to allow the mast to engage fully.

The Lisa has the option of being transported in two or three separate parts, to make it easier for the attendant (see fig. 2). The three separate parts consist of:The chassis -

in its folded transporting position with yellow plastic socket cap.

The mast and jib in carrier -

consists of mast, actuator, jib and spreader bar.

Shoulder / Hand bag -

containing battery, two slings, control handset and operating instructions.

Fig. 2

Remove the carrier and check that the mast is fully inserted into the chassis / mast socket. Remove the battery from the bag (fully charged, see section on “Battery Charging”), and fit fully into the battery compartment, electrical connection is made automatically. Similarly, remove the handset and cable from the bag and insert the plug fully into its’ socket (see fig. 1). Check that the green “reset” button (below the battery compartment), is fully depressed. Adjust the jib to its’ working position by pressing the appropriate button on the handset.

To prepare the Lisa for use, proceed as follows:-

Check that the spreader bar is correctly positioned, as shown on the label attached to the spreader bar.

Remove the yellow plastic cap from the mast socket on the chassis and carefully stow in the shoulder bag. Change the chassis from the transport position, for use, by depressing both the leg locking pedals. Move the legs a small amount to open them for use. Reset the pedals by lifting them, the legs will now automatically engage and lock in the next position when they reach the open “legs parallel” position. As the legs are moved to this position for use, the “red” safety latch (in the chassis / mast socket), automatically springs back to allow the mast to be installed.

Your Lisa is now ready for use.

With the carrier still fitted, lift the mast and jib assembly using the two maneuvering handles on the

Preparation for Use (continued)

Use of the Control Handset

If the emergency lowering switch has to be operated, the usage indicator seal will be broken, this identifies that the switch has been used, the hoist must then be withdrawn from use immediately and the ARJO Service Department or their appointed distributor contacted.

Raising and lowering the jib is achieved by pressing the appropriate button on the control handset. Note: A small direction arrow is printed on or adjacent to each button for quick reference. If pressure is released during any function, powered motion will cease immediately. Do not drop the handset into water, e.g. bath, etc. although if this does happen inadvertently no harm will come to patient or attendant. When not in use, the handset can be conveniently kept ready for use by hooking it over the loop of the manoeuvring handles at the top of the mast.

Emergency Stop Button If, in an emergency you have to stop any powered movement, other than by releasing pressure on the handset button, press the “emergency stop” button situated below the battery compartment. Once the “emergency stop” button has been operated, the green “reset” button will have to be re-engaged by pressing it in, before any powered movement can be utilised.

Emergency Lowering Switch In the unlikely event that the control handset fails to operate the hoist, with a patient still supported by the sling, provision for lowering has been made using the “emergency lowering” switch, situated at the rear of the mast below the battery compartment. If pressure is released from the switch during use, lowering will stop. IMPORTANT: The “emergency lowering” switch will only operate while the green “reset” button is in. The automatic stop function of the jib will not operate while using the emergency lowering switch, so caution must be exercised if this facility has to be used. Only use this switch in an emergency, do not use for normal function lowering.

Before approaching the patient the attendant should always tell the patient what they are going to do, and have the correct size sling ready. Where possible, always approach the patient from the front. To ensure maximum patient comfort, do not allow the patient to hold onto the spreader bar. If required, the chassis legs may be opened to go around a chair. The legs are opened by applying foot pressure to each pedal to unlock. Move the legs slightly open with the foot, then “reset” the pedals by lifting with the foot. The legs can now be fully opened and will automatically lock in the fully opened position. Closing the legs, when required, is achieved by following the same sequence.

Fig. 4 It is not essential to apply the chassis brakes at this stage, as the position of the patient will adjust to his / her own centre of gravity when lifted. Note: The chassis rear castors have brakes which can be foot operated when required, for example, when leaving the patient unattended or to keep the Lisa in position.

To Lift from a Chair

Press down on the positioning handle of the spreader bar and attach the leg strap attachment clips.

Place the sling around the patient so that the base of his / her spine is covered, and the head support area of the sling is behind the patient’s head. Pull each leg piece of the sling under the patient’s thigh so that it emerges on the inside of the thigh (see fig. 3). P.1146a, b

If necessary, lower the spreader bar using the control handset being careful not to lower it onto the patient, although if this should happen inadvertently, there is a built in device which will prevent any further downward movement. Do not continue to press the handset lowering button. Note: If the handset button is release during lifting or lowering, powered motion will stop immediately. IMPORTANT: Always check that the sling attachment clips are fully in position before and during the commencement of the lifting cycle, and in tension as the patient’s weight is gradually taken up. Raise the patient by operating the control handset, and at the same time, lift the positioning handle until the patient is reclined in the sling - the head support will now come into use. This is the most comfortable position for transportation, as it reduces pressure on the thighs. The angle of recline can be adjusted for increased comfort if the patient is restless.

Fig. 3 Ensure the positioning handle on the spreader bar is facing away from the patient, and that the wide part of the spreader bar is at, or just below, patient’s shoulder level.

Before transportation, turn the patient to face the attendant at approximately normal chair height. This gives confidence and dignity and improves mobility. Remember to release the brakes, if they have been applied, before attempting to move hoist and patient.

Ensure that the Lisa is close enough to be able to attach the shoulder clips of the sling to the pegs on the spreader bar. To accomplish this, you may have to put the patient’s feet on, or over, the chassis. Once the Lisa is in position, attach the shoulder strap attachment clips to the pegs on the spreader bar (see fig. 4).

When lowering the patient back into a chair or when transferring from bed to chair push down on the positioning handle to put the patient into a good sitting position. This avoids further lifting effort. Take care not to push down too quickly, as this may jerk the patient’s head forward. When operating the hoist ensure that all parts of the patient’s or attendant’s body are well clear of any moving part.

To Lift from a Bed Before lifting a person from a bed, ensure there is sufficient clearance underneath the bed to accommodate the chassis legs.

P.1022a

Fig. 5

Position the patient onto the sling by rolling the patient towards you then folding the sling in half and placing it behind the patient’s back (see fig. 5). Position the sling carefully so that when the patient is rolled back, the patient will lie centrally on the sling (see fig. 6). Check that the head support area of the sling covers the patient’s neck. Note: When rolling the patient back onto the sling, roll the patient slightly in the opposite direction so that the folded part of the sling can be brought out. Alternatively, the patient can be brought into the sitting posture then position the sling as described in the section “To Lift from a Chair”. Approach the bed with the open side of the spreader bar towards the patient’s head. Note: It is possible to make adjustments to chassis leg positions, to assist maneuverability around obstructions, for example, bed legs. Position the Lisa so that the spreader bar is just above, and centrally situated over the patient. Care must be taken not to lower the spreader bar onto the patient.

Using your Lisa (continued) With the open part of the spreader bar pointing downwards towards the patient’s shoulders attach the shoulder strap attachment clips.

Press down on the positioning handle until connection of the sling leg pieces is possible. This may involve lifting one leg at a time to connect up. You may also need to lower the spreader bar a little using the control handset.

Once connected, raise the patient’s hip and knee into maximum flexion and push down on the positioning handle in order to connect the leg strap attachment clips. This will have the effect of raising the patient’s head and shoulders slightly.

When lifting from the bed, some attendants prefer to connect the leg pieces first. This particularly applies to the very large patient with large thighs, in this case, raise the hip and the knee into maximum flexion, and attach the leg strap attachment clips, then tilt the spreader bar towards the shoulders for connection.

IMPORTANT: Always check that the sling attachment clips are fully in position before and during the commencement of the lifting cycle, and in tension as the patient’s weight is gradually taken up.

When lifting from the floor, some attendants prefer to connect the leg pieces first. This in particular applies to the very large patient with large thighs. In this case, raise the patient’s hip and knee into maximum flexion and attach the leg straps first.

Lift the patient using the control handset and adjust to a comfortable position for transfer. The specially designed sling together with its’ integral head support enables one person to carry out the complete lifting function without additional help.

Tilt the spreader bar towards the patient’s shoulders to enable the shoulder straps to be connected. When all the straps have been properly connected, raise the patient from the floor in a semi-recumbent position. Supporting the patient’s head can be comfortable and reassuring for the patient.

If returning the patient to a bed, move the patient into the desired position above the bed, adjusting the sling position as necessary, and then lower using the control handset.

The leg sections of the sling will tend to be fairly high in the crotch, so straighten the leg pieces out for added comfort. The patient may be positioned in a chair, or placed on a bed. If the patient is prone to extensor spasm, he / she may be lifted by the Lisa, but special attention should be paid to supporting the patient’s legs during the early part of the lift.

Only when the patient’s body weight is fully supported by the bed may the sling leg connection clips be detached, followed by the shoulder connections. Move the Lisa away before removing the sling from under the patient. If transferring the patient to a chair refer to the section “To Lift from a Chair”.

When lifting patients with leg amputations, use the “double amputee sling” (available as an accessory from ARJO Ltd). This sling has been specially designed to accommodate the differing patient centre of gravity.

When operating the hoist ensure that all parts of the patient’s or attendant’s body are well clear of any moving part.

When operating the hoist ensure that all parts of the patient’s or attendant’s body are well clear of any moving part.

To Lift from the Floor Put the sling around the patient as described previously, by using the rolling or sitting up method. Depending on circumstances, space and / or position of the patient, etc. approach the patient with the open part of the chassis. Open the chassis legs, if necessary, and lift the patient’s legs over the chassis legs. The patient’s head and shoulders can be raised on pillows for comfort if required, but this is not essential when connecting up the sling to the spreader bar.

IMPORTANT: Transportation of a patient should always be done with the chassis legs parallel, manoeuvrability will be easier, especially through doorways with the chassis legs in this position. The patient should be positioned facing the attendant.

the plug), and then pull the plug out. Place the battery pack, the handset and cable and slings into their custom positions in the shoulder bag. With the mast still fitted in the chassis locate the “wrap around” carrier bag to the mast and jib. The jib fits into the carrier first and allows the slot in the carrier to fit around the handle tubes. Close the top two flaps of the carrier around the mast and jib by pressing “Velcro” surfaces together. Position the flap over the aperture of the battery compartment. The remaining two buckles of the carrier can then be snapped together to complete the attachment of the carrier.

Carrying and Transporting the Lisa ARJO Ltd recommend that the two main parts of the Lisa are carried separately. The chassis and the shoulder bag being one part, the mast / jib carrier is the other part (see fig. 2). Alternatively, the mast still in its’ carrier can be located in the chassis and then wheeled to the transporting destination. This applies to journeys where stairs or steps are not encountered.

The attendant should position themselves behind the mast and carefully lift the mast out of the chassis. It may be helpful if the attendant places one foot on either of the rubber pads (situated on the chassis), to assist in dismantling.

ARJO suggests that when placing the Lisa in the boot of a car that the mast / jib carrier is laid into the boot first and the chassis placed in afterwards. This is probably the most convenient arrangement as it ensures the chassis can be lifted out first, making it readily available for the mast to be installed, should the next occasion of use require it to be wheeled from the car.

With the mast removed from the chassis carefully lower the carrier and mast to the ground. Unlock the legs by pressing down on the two foot pedals, the red lever inside the chassis / mast socket should then be pulled forwards (towards the front castors), this action will lift latches on the side of the socket tube and allow the chassis legs to be moved together until the castors touch. Press up on the foot pedals to reset, this will enable the chassis legs to be locked in the closed position. If this does not happen immediately move the legs slightly to find the “locked” location.

Apply the chassis brakes if leaving the patient unattended.

Preparations for Transporting The Lisa has been designed as a lightweight hoist that can easily be transported by one person. The following sequence describes how to prepare your Lisa for transporting:-

Replace the chassis socket protection cap (yellow plastic).

Remove the sling from the spreader bar and fold to allow it to be replaced in the shoulder bag.

The Lisa is now ready for carrying.

Position the spreader bar so that the positioning handle is just underneath the jib and pulled back fully towards the mast. Using the control handset lower the jib to the full extent of its’ travel, when it stops the jib is in the fully folded position. Press the “red” emergency stop button. Remove the battery pack by pulling upwards and away from the Lisa using the recessed handhold provided. Remove the handset cable plug from its’ socket by first pressing the “release” button (situated on top of

Battery Charging n “amber” light will also be displayed initially - this indicates a state of low charge in the battery pack. When the battery has been fully charged the amber light will go out and a “green” light will be displayed on the charger, this indicates that the battery is fully charged.

The battery pack, when new and fully charged, will enable the Lisa to achieve approximately 20 lifts, with an average weight patient. The pack incorporates an indicator light, situated and recessed into the top of the battery pack. This light will flash intermittently when the pack needs recharging and although a small number of lifts are possible when the light flashes, it is a signal that the pack needs to be charged as soon as possible.

The charger is equipped with the facility to automatically diagnose faults during the charging procedure. Various combinations of indicator lights displayed will confirm the following:-

If the indicator light remains on, this signals that the battery pack is discharged and not capable of a lifting cycle.

1. Green/Amber flashing lights indicate that the battery is faulty.

Note: The “continuous” display of the indicator light will remain for approximately 10 minutes, after this time it will automatically switch off. The condition of a fitted battery can then only be determined by pressing a function button on the handset.

2. Green only flashing continuously at the start of charge indicates that the battery voltage has dropped to such a low level that, for safety reasons, it cannot be recharged. The charger will not operate.

To ensure the Lisa is always ready for use, it is recommended that a freshly charged battery pack is always available. This can be achieved by having a second battery, keeping one on charge while the other is in use.

If any of these conditions are indicated do not attempt to charge the battery and contact ARJO Ltd or their approved distributor.

3. Amber only flashing continuously indicates that the charge has been aborted. The charger will not operate.

Always disconnect the mains supply before disconnecting the battery.

When the battery state indicator light flashes, complete your lift cycle then remove the pack by pulling upwards and away from the Lisa, using the recessed handhold provided.

When the battery pack has been charged, disconnect the mains power, remove the pack from the charger and insert it fully into the battery compartment of the Lisa, power is connected automatically.

Place the battery pack on charge as follows:-

Hold the pack firmly to ensure it does not drop and cause personal injury or become damaged.

Push the charger connector into the battery pack socket (see fig. 8), then connect the charger unit into a convenient mains socket.

Ensure the “green” reset button is pressed in.

The charger has three coloured indicator lights. When switched on, a “red” light will be displayed this indicates that mains power is connected to the charger unit. P.997e

Always connect the battery pack to the charger before connecting mains power.

The battery pack may be left connected to the charger unit when it is fully charged without being damaged by overcharging.

If the electrolyte contacts the eyes wash immediately with copious amounts of water and seek medical attention.

Warnings

When disposing of batteries contact the appropriate local authority for advice.

Only use the charger unit in a dry environment, do not use it in the bathroom.

Storage of Batteries When stored a battery will slowly self discharge. Batteries that are not in use or recharge should be kept cool but not under 0°C (32°F). Recharge stored batteries every six months.

Do not expose the charger unit or battery pack to rain or spray and do not immerse in water. Do not obstruct ventilator slots on the battery charger otherwise overheating will result. No smoking or naked flames in battery vicinity. The battery charger is for use with ARJO supplier batteries that are to be used with the Lisa. The battery charger is for use with sealed lead acid batteries only. Under no circumstances should the charger be used to attempt to recharge nonrechargeable batteries. To change the power cord, the charger must be sent to the manufacturer.

General Safety Practices for Batteries Only use the charger unit supplied with the Lisa. Do not charge batteries in a sealed container. Do not place batteries near or dispose of in a fire. Do not short circuit the battery pack. Do not store batteries at temperatures in excess of 60°C (140°F). Do not crush, puncture, open, dismantle or otherwise mechanically interfere with the battery pack. Should the battery casing become cracked and electrolyte come into contact with skin or clothing wash immediately with water.

Care of your Lisa

How often the following actions are taken depends on how often the equipment is used.

Do not use petroleum based solvents or similar, since this may damage plastic parts.

Unless otherwise stated, it is a good idea to begin once a week and then rely on experience to decide how often it is necessary in the future.

For disinfection of contaminated hoists, equipment and accessories, use the preferred method of wiping the product completely with “hard surface disinfectant wipes” that are supplied impregnated with a 70% v/v solution of Isopropyl Alcohol.

The slings should be checked, and if necessary washed according to instructions on the sling, also refer to sling instruction sheet MAX.01510.INT. Before washing the slings with head support remove the plastic reinforcement pieces from the sling. Refit them before re-using the sling.

Note: A rubbing action will be necessary when using the wipes to promote effective disinfection of the surfaces.

With regard to laundering, slings should not be classified as linen, but as an accessory to a patient transfer hoist and therefore classified as a medical device. Slings should be cleaned and disinfected only in strict accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

IMPORTANT: Cleaning and disinfection products must be used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and suitable eye, hand and clothing protection must be worn at all times when handling disinfectants. Note:70% v/v Isopropyl Alcohol wipes have been proved to be effective against MRSA and several other micro-organisms under light soiling conditions.

Mechanical pressure should be avoided during the washing and drying procedure e.g. rolling or pressing, as these can damage parts vital to the safe and comfortable operation of the sling.

Ensure that the battery pack is always in a good state of charge. Check that the hoist can be propelled in a normal manner, making sure that the castors are quite free in their movement, as clogging by hair and fluff can occur, also check that the tread of the castor is not damaged.

It is recommended that ARJO Patient hoists, equipment, accessories and slings are regularly cleaned. If the slings, hoists and equipment needs cleaning, or are suspected of being contaminated, follow the cleaning and/or disinfection procedures recommended below, before re-using the equipment. This is especially important when using the same equipment for another patient, to minimise the risk of cross infection.

Ensure that the castors are firmly secured to the chassis. Carefully inspect all plastic parts, in particular where there is personal contact with the patient’s body, ensure that no cracks or sharp edges have developed which could injure the patient’s skin or become unhygienic.

For cleaning your hoist, equipment and accessories wipe down with a damp cloth using warm water to which a disinfectant/ cleaner has been added e.g. “ARJO CLEAN” - disinfectant/cleaner or equivalent.

It is essential that the slings, their straps and attachment clips are carefully inspected. If the slings or straps are frayed, or the clips damaged, the sling should be withdrawn from use immediately and replaced.

Note:“ARJO CLEAN” - disinfectant cleaner is available from ARJO Ltd. or their approved distributors.

Check that all external fittings are secure and that all screws and nuts are tight.

Do not over wet areas of the product which could cause problems with electrical components or internal corrosion.

Ensure that all instruction labels are firmly attached and in good readable condition.

If a hot air dryer is used to dry the hoist, the temperature must not exceed 80°C (165°F).

Servicing Advice

Should any damage occur that prevents the hoist from being assembled and used in accordance with these instructions the Lisa should be withdrawn from use immediately and the ARJO Service Department, or their appointed distributor, contacted.

The components listed below are critical to the safe operation of the Lisa and must be regularly examined and replaced at the following intervals:The spreader bar friction discs - inspect every year and replace as necessary.

Periodic Testing

Important new legislation came into force on 5th December 1998, which has an impact on the schedule of service for your patient hoist(s), variable height baths and other raising and lowering equipment. The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) 1998 and The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER 98) must be satisfied by the duty holder. A scheme of six monthly thorough examinations has been devised to comply with the law and details can be obtained from ARJO Service UK.

Test for normal operation - raise and lower the jib using the control handset to test for full and efficient movement. Automatic Stop With the jib well above its’ lowest position and the hoist positioned over an empty bed, use the control handset to lower the jib on to the bed. As jib lowering is restricted the motor will stop. Release the control handset button after a second or two. Raise the jib again using the control handset. This checks for the correct functioning of the automatic stop.

The simplest, safest and most effective way to maintain your product in good working order is to have it methodically and professionally serviced by an ARJO approved engineer, using ARJO approved spare parts. This should be carried out at least annually.

Emergency Stop Test the emergency stop facility by operating the control handset to lift or lower the jib and while operating, press in the “emergency stop” button. Powered movement should stop immediately. Reset to normal function by pressing the “green” reset button.

For information on service and maintenance contracts please contact your local ARJO Distributor.

Adjustable Width Chassis Function Open and close the chassis legs to check for full and efficient movement.

General Hoist Condition Check the lower end of the mast, to ensure it slides freely into the chassis socket. A general visual inspection of all external parts should be carried out and all functions should be tested for correct operation to ensure that no adverse damage has occurred during use. If in any doubt about the correct functioning of the Lisa, withdraw it from use and contact ARJO Service Department, or their appointed distributor.
