Lifting to and from a seated position

When lifting a user from e.g. a wheelchair, move the GH1 towards the person to be lifted. The lifting hanger should be at the same height as the user’s chest and should not be moved further in over the user than to approximately mid-thigh position.

Place the lifting hanger parallel to the user’s shoulders.

Place the lifting sling behind the user’s back between the back of the chair and the user’s back. The center marks of the lifting sling should follow the user’s spine.

Lead the leg straps along the outer sides of the user’s 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

Bring the lifting hanger over the centre of the person to be lifted. Place the lifting hanger parallel to the user’s 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 user’s head. Now position the sling over the user so that the center marks follow the user’s 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 user’s thighs and cross them. All four lifting straps are now ready to be attached and the lifting sling can now be mounted on the lifting hanger. It is an advantage to elevate the head of the bed so that the user is sitting up.

Page 12

For further information, please refer to the user manual for the lifting sling in question.

Important!

Only persons who have received competent instruction regarding the use of lifting equipment and tting of slings should use the hoist.

Plan the move. Avoid leaving the user in the lifting sling unattended.

The hoist lifts quickly and powerfully. Before lifting, check that the user is completely free of his/her surroundings. The user’s 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.

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.

Charging / connection

GH1 is recharged when the hand control is placed in the charging station. Always leave the hand control in the charging station when GH1 is not in use. This guarantees GH1 functionality and maintains the battery to ensure a long lifetime.

The transformer must be connected and switched on before charging can take place. A green indicator lamp on the transformer indicates it is connected and switched on.

Tilt the hand control and place it on the two pins on the charging station.Then push the rubber handle into the opening of the charging station. A click indicates that the hand control is placed correctly.

When the hand control is correctly placed in the charging station, you will receive an acoustic signal of 3 beeps. This means that the hoist is now charging.

The indicator lamp on the bottom of the hoist turns yellow if the charge status becomes low. The GH1 then has a limited number of lifts available at a time and must be recharged.

Placing of the hand control

When GH1 is not in use the hand control must always be placed in the charging station. The hand control can also be placed on the lifting hanger if this is necessary in connection with a transfer.

Page 18

2.04 Safety functions

The emergency stop and emergency lowering device should only be used in an emergency. In the event that it is necessary to use the safety func-

tions, the fault must be identied and rectied before the GH1 is taken into

use again. Please contact your supplier.

Emergency stop and lowering strap

The red strap has the following functions:

• One pull: Emergency stop is activated.

• Constant pull: Emergency lowering is activated.

Emergency stop

If the GH1 does not stop/react to the hand control when the GH1 is in use, pull the red strap and the lifting/lowering functions (except emergency lowering) are deactivated. When the emergency stop is activated, the hoist will not function. The green lamp is switched off.

Reset emergency stop

Reset the emergency stop by pressing the yellow button on the bottom of the hoist.

The yellow button that appears when the emergency stop is pulled, must be pressed manually before the GH1 is ready for use. After deactivating the emergency stop, activate the hand control twice.

Emergency lowering function, electric

If the GH1 fails, the electrical emergency lowering function is used to lower the user safely. The emergency lowering function is operated by a constant pull on the red strap that is used for the emergency stop.

When releasing the red strap, the emergency lowering function will be replaced by the emergency stop.

2.05 Accessories

Guldmann – Lifting slings and hangers

Obtain a product catalogue from Guldmann, or see our product range at www.guldmann.com where it is also possible to watch a video about the use of lifting slings and to download user manuals for our products.

Extension strap

The extension strap is used where the distance between the lower part of the rails

and the oor exceeds 3.5 m. The extension strap is available as an accessory.

Swing adapter

The swing function is used in conjunction with a transfer, e.g. through a door from one lifting module to another.

Switch track, electrical

(Must not be used with GH1 Q)

A switch track can be used in rail systems where it is used to change direction.

Turntable

The turntable is used in rail systems where the hoist needs to run in several directions.

The GH1 hoist is placed in the center of the turntable. By pressing the switch, the turntable rotates 90°. Press again, and the

turn table returns to the rst position.

Safety

This product is mechanically protected against derailing and jamming.

GH Combi-lock, automatic (Must not be used with GH1 Q)

Intended use

The Combi-lock is used to move a person from one rail system to another.

Purpose

Use the Combi-lock when connecting one rail system to another.

The Combi-lock enables a secure connection to be made between two rail systems, e.g. when operating from a singletrack rail system in the bedroom to a roomcovering system in the bathroom.

Page 20

The Combi-lock requires no manual operations.

Using the Combi-lock

When activating the Combi-lock, position the traverse rail opposite the xed

rail, where the locking mechanism is automatically activated (the rail systems lock together). Now it is possible to run the hoist from one rail system to the

other. When the traverse rail is moved away from the xed rail, the locking

mechanisms are re-activated to secure the hoist and prevent it from running off the rail. The hoist must always be run completely past the Combi-lock before the traverse rail is moved away (the Combi-lock must be visible).

The rail systems are optimally connected at a max. distance of 1000 mm between the hoist and the Combi-lock; you may also refer to the marking label on the rail. At this distance, a secure and easy connection can be made.

At a distance greater than 1000 mm, it is more difcult to position the two rail

systems opposite one another. Please note that the connection works regardless of the position of the hoist in relation to the Combi-lock.

Safety

• In the event of an error while using the Combi-lock, discontinue its use.

Contact the Guldmann Service Team or a certied technician to perform any

necessary repairs. A defective Combi-lock can result in injury to both the user and helper.

• The locking mechanism in the Combi-lock must not be manually activated.

• The Combi-lock is mechanically secured to prevent de-railing and crushing.

• Do not touch the Combi-lock during activation/deactivation

Cleaning

See section 4.01

Daily maintenance

Ensure that the Combi-Lock is intact. Do not use the Combi-lock if it is damaged or defective. Instead, contact the Guldmann Service Team or a

certied technician, as per Guldmann’s instructions.
