SECTION 6-ATTACHING SLING HARDWARE SECTION 6-ATTACHING SLING HARDWARE Attaching the Sling Hardware The hardware used with the one-piece contour sling includes four metal support bars. The hardware inserts into the pockets at the edge of the fabric. The pocket that will hold the metal bar has an opening in the center. The pocket is sewn closed on one end and has an open-end with a strap on the other. NOTE: When the slings are laundered, remove the four metal support bars. They MUST be replaced or the sling can not be used for lifting purposes. Inserting the Four Metal Support Bars into the Sling NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.1 on page 24. NOTE: When inserting each metal bar into the sling pocket, align the metal support bar in the center of the strap (after it has been pulled down) and push the metal support bar into the sling pocket. The sling is sewn on both sides so the center location is critical. 1. To insert the metal support bar, pull the strap down allowing the bar to pass through the opening in the sling pocket. 2. Push the metal support bar through until the mounting hole clears the center opening of the sling pocket. 3. Once the opposite end of the bar is inside the sewn pocket, push the strap over the metal support bar to prevent it from falling out. NOTE: The hole in the metal bar should be in the center of the pocket opening. This is where the S-hook of the chain or strap will be attached. Part No 1024492 23 Portable Patient Lift and Sling
