CLEANING
Regular cleaning is recommended. A soft cloth, dampened with water and a mild NON-ABRASIVE 
detergent (household cleaner, soapy water, or hospital grade disinfectant) is all that is needed to 
clean your patient lift. Automobile wax or furniture polish will help maintain the nish over a long 
period of time.
s  NOTICE: DO NOT wash under water pressure or steam clean.
CHECKING FOR DAMAGE AND WEAR
It is extremely important to frequently check the areas of the patient lift that are under a great deal 
of stress for damage and wear. These areas include slings, spreader bars, spreader bar suspension 
and mounting hardware, pump mounting hardware and all pivot points. Inspect for signs of 
cracking, fraying, deformation, and any loose components
  WARNING: Replace any defective parts immediately, and make certain that the patient 
lift is not used until repairs are made. Contact your authorized Lumex dealer for 
replacement parts.
CARE OF SLINGS
Lumex slings are washable at 150° F and autoclavable at 185° F for 30 minutes. The head support's 
plastic insert should be removed before washing. The slings can be dried by using a dryer on LOW 
heat or by hanging.
s  NOTICE: DO NOT bleach slings!
