User Manual - Stand-Up Lift: EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs
Intended Purpose
The stand-up lift EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is an active class I medical device according to the
EU Council Directive 93/42/EEC Appendix IX. It can be employed in all areas of care work and is intended
for use by caregivers properly instructed in its operation.
It is intended for short-term use not involving contact with injured skin and requires the use of a suitable sling.
The stand-up lift EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs may be used for patients weighing up to a maximum weight of 300 kg.
The stand-up lift EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is only suitable for driving short distances within the
patient’s residence or area of activity on one floor. It must only be used on an even, horizontal floor.
The climatic conditions must be an ambient temperature of 0°C to 40°C, humidity of 20% to 80%, air pressure
of 700 hPa to 1060 hPa and in the range of normally composed atmospheric air. It is permitted to be used
in wet areas. For example, this includes the toilet or the bath. This does not include using the patient hoist
under the shower.
The stand-up lift EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is not explosion protected and is not permitted to
be used in potentially explosive areas.
Clinical pictures such as osteogenesis imperfecta, osteoporosis or spinal column damage, as well as mental
disorientation or epileptic seizures can represent contraindications.
The stand-up lift EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is only permitted to be used after careful consideration of the individual patient by the doctor and the care personnel.
Standard stand-up lift
In the standard stand-up lift version the EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is solely to be used for lifting
and transferring a patient in a suitable sling. This is usually performed with the patient in a seated position.
Active stand-up lift
In the active stand-up lift version, the EASYLEV XL with electrical opening legs is solely to be used to assist a
patient from a seated position to a standing position and then transfer them in a suitable sling. It serves as an
aid to the natural movement of standing up and sitting down and can be driven with the patient standing
up so that they may still go to the toilet independently for example. Additionally, the patient’s participation
stimulates its residual mobility by strengthening his circulation and musculature.
The use of the active stand-up lift requires the active participation of the patient. The ability to hold on to the
lifting arm tightly is particularly important. Missing limbs or functional limitations of the musculoskeletal system
(e.g., paraplegia) can limit or rule out the use of an active hoist. This must be decided by the operator on a
case-by-case basis.
Scope of Delivery
The stand-up lift has already been inspected at the factory to ensure that it is free from defects
and that nothing is missing. Nevertheless, please check the product immediately after receipt for
any damage which may have occurred during transport.
Use the delivery note to check that all items are present and that the delivery is thus complete.

Instructions for Use
• The stand-up lifts are useful and effective when a patient has a certain degree of dependence coupled with a caregiver need for basic care.
• They are designed for patients whose mobility is reduced but who can however be supported temporarily
who require mechanical assistance to be put into standing and be moved.
• The stand-up lifts contribute to the stimulation of the patient and its mobility; stimulate the
cardiac system; combating against osteoporosis and all disorders associated with immobility such as falls during transfers; stimulate brain activity thus favouring maintenance of
continence; improves intestinal activity and bladder function.
on at least one leg (a minimum of tonicity by the patient is required), and
• Using a stand-up lift requires a capacity assessment of the patient.
• When using a stand-up lift, patients can be categorized in 2 categories:
1. Low-tonicity patients
2. Medium-tonicity patients
• How to properly use a stand-up lift (1.):
- Low-tonicity patients shall be transferred in a “semi-seated” position

Stand-up Lifts Use
Parking brake
The parking brakes are one of the important safety elements of an stand-up lift. The rear
castors are tted with parking brakes which act directly on the wheels. To lock the castors,
press the parking lever to the stop using your foot (Castor Locked). The stand-up lift can
no longer be pushed in this setting. To release the castors, press the parking lever pointing
upwards (Castor Released).
When locking the castors always insure that both castors are locked.
If only one castor is locked on a sloping oor, the unlocked wheel will roll
downhill around the locked wheel.
Depending on the slope of the surface, there is the danger that the
stand-up lift will tip over sideways.
