Accessories WARNING! Risk of Injury or Damage Accessories designed by other manufacturers have NOT been tested by Invacare. Use of NON-Invacare accessories may result in injury or damage. In certain instances, the use of other manufacturer’s slings may be possible. – Contact your local Invacare office for more information about accessories.

1195053-B

CAUTION! Compatibility of slings and hanger bars Invacare® uses a "Loop and Coat Hanger Bar System" as do many other manufacturers. Therefore other suitable patient transfer systems (slings), manufactured by other companies, can be used on the Invacare patient lift range as well. However we do recommend: – A risk assessment is always to be carried out by a professional prior to issuing lifting equipment. It is important that the Task, Individual, Load, Environment and Equipment are considered in the risk assessment. – Always choose the sling design and size according to the patient’s weight, size and physical ability whilst considering the type of transfer to be carried out. – Only use slings that are suitable for a "Loop and Coat Hanger Bar System". – Do not use slings for "Keyhole Hanger Bar" or for "Tilting Frame Hanger Bar" designs.
