3. Safety Precautions
Please read and follow the safety precautions listed below. The operation and use
of Oxford products is simple and straightforward. Following these few basic safety
precautions will make transfer operations easy and trouble free.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE USER INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR UP.
WARNING: Important safety information for hazards that might cause serious injury.
CAUTION: Information for preventing damage to the product.
NOTE: Information to which you should pay special attention.
WARNING
ALWAYS carry out a full and thorough risk assessment prior to using the Up.
In order to use the Up safely, the patient must display the following abilities:
• Support their own body weight while standing
• Maintain balance for an extended period while standing (with support)
• A firm grip in order to grasp the frame handles for support and stability
• Ability to understand and carry out instruction
The Up is intended for short transfers on flat/even floors.
ALWAYS plan your transfer operations before commencing.
ALWAYS carry out the DAILY CHECK LIST before using this product.
ALWAYS familiarise yourself with the operating devices and safety features of this
product before use.
DO NOT use a sling or belt unless it is recommended for use with the device.
ALWAYS check the sling/belt is suitable for the particular patient and is of the correct
size and capacity.
NEVER use a sling/belt which is frayed or damaged.
ALWAYS fit a sling/belt according to the user instructions provided.
ALWAYS check the safe working load of the product(s) is/are suitable for the weight of
the patient.
ALWAYS carry out transfers according to the instructions in the user manual.
NEVER attempt to bypass a safety feature because it seems easier to operate
the product.
NEVER force an operating or safety device. All devices are easy to use and do not
require excessive force to operate. If a device is not working easily there will be a
reason. Forcing will only strain or damage the product and may compromise safety.
To avoid inadvertent contact with the rear braked castors during transfer, and possible
injury, ENSURE the patient’s feet are correctly positioned on the footplate.
ALWAYS apply both brakes after positioning the Up into position in front of the patient
prior to asking them to stand.
When transferring to or from a wheeled/movable surface such as a commode, wheel
chair or bed, ensure the brakes (of that surface) are applied to avoid any inadvertent
movement and ensure a safer, more stable transfer.

and support, the Oxford Deluxe Standing sling with clips
can be used in combination with the Up.

line and secure the waist belt around the patient using
the clip. This strap need not be tight. It is there to hold
the sling in position while attaching the sling to the Up.
Ensure that the client’s arms are outside the sling.
When tted to the patient, the sling is connected to the clip attachment pins by using the Securi3 clip
system (step by step guide as follows). To remove, simply reverse this procedure.
PLEASE NOTE:

pins as described in the illustration shown.
