7 CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care and maintenance are essential to keeping your Lumex LF1050 Patient Lift in a safe
operating condition. In addition to inspecting the unit before each use, periodic maintenance
checks should be done.
WARNING: It is extremely important that the patient lift be inspected before each use.
Ensure that all hardware and accessories are secure and that the actuator is functioning
properly. Failure to do so could result in patient / attendant injury or damage to your patient
lift. Torn, cut, frayed or broken slings can fail, resulting in serious injury. Only use slings
in good condition. Inspect before each use. Destroy and discard old worn and unusable
slings.
WARNING: Service and repair of the Lumex LF1050 Patient Lift MUST be performed by
qualied personnel ONLY.
WARNING: Unauthorized modication of the patient lift or the use of non-Lumex
replacement parts may change the structure of the lift and could create a hazardous
condition, which may result in serious injury and will void the warranty.
WARNING: The electronics and actuator contain no serviceable components. DO NOT
attempt to open the electronics or actuator. If service is required, consult GF Tech Support
at 1.770.368.4700 for further information.
