1.02

Intended purpose The GH3 lifting module is intended for lifting and transferring a person with disabilities and for gait training.

1.03

Area of use GH3 is suitable for professional use in hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, institutions, Riding schools, swimming pools, mortuarys and in private homes and buildings, where operators with medical/clinical training are continually on site or on call.

1.04

Conditions for use GH3 is a ceiling-mounted hoist that moves in a rail system. GH3 is designed to be used with a variety of lifting hangers and lifting slings.

• • • • • • • •

The GH3 should only be used by trained personnel. The maximum nominal load, 200 kg (440 lbs), 250 kg (550 lbs), 275 kg (600 lbs), 300 kg (660 lbs), 350 kg (770 lbs), 375 kg (825 lbs), 400 kg (880 lbs) respectively, must not be exceeded. Instruction offered by Guldmann to all customer groups in connection with the purchase of a ceiling-mounted hoist has been received. The helper pays attention to the well-being of the user when using the hoist. The hoist is used in rail systems which are installed, tested and approved according to Guldmann’s stipulation. Only technicians who have been certified by Guldmann may install and test the rail systems. The hoist is used with the Guldmann lifting hanger or with another suitable hanger (section 1.09). The hoist is used with a Guldmann lifting sling or with other suitable slings (section 1.10).

The use of the GH3 is subject to the following:

1.05

• • • • • • • • • • • • •

• • • •

Important/Precautions Read the instructions carefully before using the GH3 and in connection with cleaning and service of the hoist. The GH3’s maximum load must never be exceeded. The GH3 may only be used to lift a person. The red strap for the emergency stop and the emergency lowering must be adjusted to the helpers reach, and must not be removed. The GH3 must not be used where there is a risk of it being splashed with water. If a defect appears during use of the GH3, stop using the hoist and contact the Guldmann Service Team for repairs. The GH3 is controlled by a microprocessor PCB, which can be damaged by static electricity if touched without the necessary precautions, (see point 1.08) The electronics may only be serviced by Guldmann approved service technicians. The lifting hanger must not be mounted or replaced when the GH3 hoist is positioned over the patient. Do not modify this equipment without the authorization of the manufacturer The GH3 needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in Chapter 11 EMC Information. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the GH3. Accessories, transducers and cables must always be original Guldmann components. The use of other spare parts than those supplied by Guldmann A/S may result in poor EMC protection. This may cause damage to the GH3 lifting module as well as electrical products in the nearby surroundings. The GH3 should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment and if adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the GH3 should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used. Transport of this equipment should only be undertaken after conditions described in section 3.00 (Environmental conditions). Nothing should be connected to the USB port when the device is in use with a patient. Any serious incident that occurred in relation to this device should be reported to the manufacturer and the local competent authority. Re: EMC If electromagnetic or other influences occur between this product and other products, these products must not be used together.

1.06

Load limits on GH3 system Read the label which indicates the maximum load limits for each component. The component, e.g. lifting hanger, lifting sling, etc. labelled with the lowest load limit determines the maximum load limit for the entire system. This maximum load limit must not be exceeded. Please note that the max load may change when different components are used, such as lifting hangers, lifting slings, etc.

1.07

Unpacking and Preparation Visual check of the GH3. If the GH3 is thought to be damaged upon reception, the GH3 must not be used before it has been checked and approved by a qualified person or the Guldmann Service Team. Contents of the box 1. GH3 hoist 2. Hand control 3. Transformer 4. Manual 5. Label for rail system

1.08

Placing a new GH3 Hoist in an existing rail system

•

The rated max load of the rail system, must be equal to or higher than the max load of the new hoist. – If there is no max load mentioned on the rail system, the rail system must then be checked according to the guideline in the installation manual (distance between bracket according to max load) – If the brackets are not visible, then a load test with 1,5 x max load of the hoist must be performed for a minimum of 20 min. The deflection of rails must not be higher than 1/200 of the length of the rail. – If it is not possible to do any of the above mentioned, please contact Guldmann or their representative

•

If the rail system can not be rated to the same max load as the hoist, then extra brackets must be installed according to the installation manual (distance between bracket according to max load). Class I equipment Fixed rail systems are class I equipment and must be installed by a qualified technician or by Guldmann Service Team. Equipment is disconnected from Supply Mains by breaking the mains breaker switch. Emergency stop device The emergency stop device must be reset in order to connect power to the product. To do this, push the yellow reset button (see point 2.09).

Please notice that when, placing a new GH3 hoist in an existing rail system it must be ensured that:

1.09

Power supply GH3 is equipped with batteries that require regular recharging. The power supply for charging and the battery charging point must be connected by a qualified engineer or by Guldmann Service Team. The transformer supplied must always be used.

Safety concerning static electricity (ESD) Service technicians and installers must use an ESD-safety package consisting of a mat, a ground wire, and a bracelet. The technician/installer connects the mat to a grounding point, for instance a radiator or a water pipe. The technician/installer must then put on the bracelet and connect it to the mat. If it is not possible to find a grounding point, the mat and the bracelet must be used as a minimum. Only then is it allowed to work with the PC Board or components where it is possible to come into contact with the PC Board.

Installation of the lifting hanger before use Lifting hangers from other manufacturers Guldmann shall not be liable for faults or accidents that may occur as a result of using lifting hangers made by other manufacturers. If there is any doubt about the selection or use of a lifting hanger, please contact your supplier.

Fig. 1

The lifting hanger can be installed to the lifting strap without the use of any tools. 1. Press the yellow button and hold it in while the lifting strap’s hook is inserted into the opening of the top cover of the lifting hanger (fig. 2a - 2b).

Fig. 2a

2. Release the yellow button (fig. 2c) 3. Rotate the strap attachment to a vertical position (fig. 3). Check that the yellow button has returned to its locked position by checking that it is flush with the cover of the lifting hanger and that the strap attachment can rotate freely.

1.11

Lifting sling A lifting sling with four to eight lifting straps designed for mounting on hooks should be utilized when using a Guldmann lifting hanger. Place the straps on the hooks. If a hanger with rubber fingers is used, make sure that the rubber safety catch returns to its starting position, so that the strap can not unintentionally fall off. Slings made by other manufacturers Guldmann shall not be liable for faults or accidents that may occur as a result of using lifting slings made by other manufacturers. If there is any doubt about the selection or use of a lifting sling, please contact your supplier. Guldmann shall not be liable for faults or accidents due to incorrect use of the lifting sling, or for reasons of inadequate attention on the part of the carer or user. Attaching the lifting sling Place the straps from the lifting sling on the hooks on the lifting hanger. Start with the uppermost set of straps (from the back) and then take the lowest set of straps (from the legs). Lifting hanger, 4 attachment points Caution! Be careful when attaching the lifting slings straps on the hooks. Check that the straps have been correctly placed in the lifting hangers hooks. When pressing the up button on the hand control to lift the user, check again that all straps remain correctly placed in the lifting hangers hooks (Fig. 1).

Fig. 1

Lifting hanger Caution! Be careful when attaching the lifting sling on the hooks. Check that the straps have been pulled completely through the rubber safety catch (A) and into place in the lifting hanger’s hooks. When pressing the up button to lift the user, check again that all the straps remain correctly placed in the lifting hanger’s hooks (fig. 1a and fig. 1b).

Fig. 1a

Fig. 1b

Lifting to and from a seated position When lifting a user from e.g. a wheelchair, move the GH3 towards the person to be lifted. The lifting hanger should be at the same height as the users chest and should be in approximately mid-thigh position. Place the lifting hanger parallel to the users shoulders. Place the lifting sling behind the users back between the back of the chair and the users back. The center marks of the lifting sling should follow the users spine. Lead the leg straps along the outer sides of the users shins and beneath the thighs between the hollow of the knees and the hip joints. Cross the leg straps in front of the user.

All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached. The lifting sling can now be mounted on the lifting hanger.

Lifting to and from lying position in bed Place the lifting hanger over the centre of the person to be lifted. Place the lifting hanger parallel to the users shoulders. Turn the user onto his or her side. The Basic High sling should be placed so that its top is at the same height as the top of the users head. Now position the sling over the user so that the centre band follows the users spine. Turn the user onto his or her back and pull out the remaining part of the lifting sling. Place the leg straps beneath the users thighs and cross them. All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached and the lifting sling can be mounted on the lifting hanger. It is an advantage to elevate the head of the bed so that the user is sitting up. Important! For further information, please refer to the user manual for the lifting sling in question. Only people who have received competent instruction regarding the use of lifting equipment and fitting of slings should use the hoist. Plan the move. Avoid leaving the user in the lifting sling unattended. Working with the GH3 The GH3 runs easily in the rail system and does not have any special requirements for space or power in connection with moving. Attention can thus be fully focused on the users functional level and the helpers technique. If the hoist is used correctly, the user should only be lifted to the extent that she/he is clear of the surface and should be moved at this height.

The hoist lifts quickly and powerfully. Before lifting, check that the user is completely free of his/her surroundings. The users head, arms, hands and feet must not be in danger of becoming trapped. Be careful with any tubes and wires that are attached to the user. The user should not hold the lifting strap during the moving procedure as there is a risk of crushing between the strap’s hook and the hoist. Check that the hand control and hand control cable is free of hanger, patient and other object before the hoist is activated up or down moved.

Swing kit The swing function is used in conjunction with a transfer e.g. through a door from one lifting module to another. Note: The swing adapter must be ordered separately.

Fig. 1

Installation of swing adapter 1. Before starting a lift involving a swing transfer the swing adapter (Fig. 1) must be installed on the lifting hanger. (Fig. 2 to 5)

Fig. 2

2. Hold the lifting hanger in the right hand and press the yellow button using the thumb (Fig. 2) 3. Insert the swing adapter in the slot on the lifting hanger top cover with the open side facing down (Fig. 3a, 3b) and release the yellow button.

Fig. 3a

4. Rotate the swing adapter to a vertical position (Fig. 4) 5. Check that the yellow button has returned to its locked position by checking that it is flush with the cover of the lifting hanger and that the swing adapter can rotate freely. 6. Install the strap attachment to the swing adapter by sliding the open side of the strap attachment over the flat area of the swing adapter (Fig. 5) 7. Rotate the strap attachment and ensure that it moves up on the circular portion of the swing adapter (Fig. 6)

Using swing kit in doorway 1. Bring the two hoists as close together as possible. Adjust the height of the lifting hanger on hoist B so that the transfer can be done without the user touching the floor during the transfer from one hoist to another.

4. Disconnect the lifting strap on hoist B from the lifting hanger and raise the strap on hoist B out of the way.

5. Move the lifting hanger from hoist A to operating height and the doorway transfer is complete.

2. Take the free lifting strap from hoist A and secure it to the swing adapter on the lifting hanger (see 1.10 figures 5 and 6). In order to lower the free lifting strap on hoist A a slight pull must be applied to the strap.

3. Lower the lifting hanger using hoist B while lifting the strap on hoist A to perform the swing transfer. The transfer has been completed when there is no load on the lifting strap on hoist B.

1.14

GH3 with horizontal drive motor The GH3 with horizontal drive motor can operate in the rail system. Be aware that the drive motor takes time to both accelerate and brake the hoist. The drive speed can be reduced with the SIC software. It is possible to position the hoist with horizontal driving motor with a high degree of accuracy by a brief activation of the hand control. The GH3 with horizontal drive motor runs on its own power and it should not be pulled through the rail system.

1.15

GH3 with horizontal drive motor and infrared remote (IR) control The GH3 has an integrated IR receiver which is controlled by the IR remote control. The hand control should be left attached to the hoist. This means that the hoist can always be operated, in the the event that the IR remote control is misplaced or the battery is uncharged.
