wear, tears and loose stitching. Discard any patient sling that meets these criteria IMMEDIATELY.
Bleached, torn, cut, frayed or broken slings are unsafe and their use could result in injury or damage.
Discard any sling that meets these criteria IMMEDIATELY.

Check that the sling is properly connected to the attachment points BEFORE lifting the patient.
During transfer, with the patient suspended in the sling, DO NOT roll the base of the lift over any
uneven surfaces that would cause the lift to become unstable.
