The Hoyer Ascend is an electrically operated patient lift. Each Ascend lift is fully assembled load
tested and certified before being packed/shipped.
The packing consists of a strong, purpose built carton that is used for both export and domestic
markets to ensure the safe arrival of the lift.

safely for future reference.

records. It is valid for six months and after it has expired the lift should be inspected and serviced
per the maintenance schedule.

requirements are, please check with your dealer and/or a local government agency.
