Built for demanding care environments, it offers powered lifting and powered base adjustment to reduce physical strain on caregivers while providing a smoother, more controlled transfer for the patient. Its long lift arm and 4-point spreader bar support a wide range of transfer positions, while the extra-wide sling bar helps minimize shoulder pressure for improved comfort. Dual controls located on both the hand pendant and control box ensure the lift can be operated easily at any time, and its durable frame is engineered for long-term reliability in bariatric care

What Makes it Different

An optional integrated scale adds even more functionality by allowing patients to be weighed directly in the lift, saving time and reducing unnecessary transfers.
