This instruction guide is valid for Liko MasterVest and
"TeddyVest", but in the following text we will only use
the name Liko MasterVest.
Liko MasterVest is a versatile sling with a wide range
of uses, for example, help with standing and walking
or visiting the toilet.
MasterVest supports the patient around the upper
body as well as under the arms. MasterVest requires
patients to be able to partially weight bear.
Liko MasterVest enables you to reach certain difficult-
to-achieve goals, for example:
- patients receive appropriate help to exercise and
bear weight on their legs, and
- caregivers avoid risks associated with heavy lifting.
Lifting and transferring patients to and from the toilet
can lead to severe injuries for the caregiver.
MasterVest facilitates smooth and simple transfers to
and from the toilet.
Since MasterVest covers only the upper body, the
lower body is easily accessible for dressing and
undressing.
"Caution!" triangles are used to warn of situations that demand extra care and attention.
In this document, the person being lifted is referred to as the "patient" and the person helping them is referred to
as the "caregiver".
Before using lifts and lifting accessories, read the instructions for both the sling and the lift that
will be used. Instruction guides can be downloaded, free of charge, at www.liko.com.

Summary of Contents for Liko MasterVest 60

  • Page 1 In this document, the person being lifted is referred to as the ”patient” and the person helping them is referred to as the ”caregiver”. Before using lifts and lifting accessories, read the instructions for both the sling and the lift that will be used. Instruction guides can be downloaded, free of charge, at www.liko.com.
  • Page 2: Safety Instructions

    • Before lifting, check that the lifting accessory hangs vertically and can move freely. • Although Liko’s sling bars are equipped with safety latches, special caution must be exercised: Before the patient is lifted from the underlying surface, but after the straps have been fully extended, make sure the straps are properly connected to the sling bar.
  • Page 3 Testing the Liko MasterVest Selecting the Right Size For MasterVest to function properly, the width of the vest must be in correct proportion to the circumference of the patient’s upper body.
  • Page 4 Liko MasterVest in Plastic-coated Net The most common sizes of the MasterVest are available in plastic-coated net. Friction from the material counteracts the tendency of the vest to slide upward. A MasterVest in plastic-coated net may also be used for bathing.
  • Page 5 Leg Harness A special leg harness can be used with the Liko MasterVest to help keep the vest from sliding up on the body. The harness can be put on while the patient is sitting, and after lifting the patient you can adjust the position and tension of the harness. The harness straps may be crossed or parallel through the crotch.
  • Page 6 Combinations with Liko MasterVest and Cross-bar, Cross-bar 450/670 or Side bars is not appropriate. Class I medical-technical product Liko MasterVest has been tested by an accredited testing institute and complies with all requirements for MDD Class I products and the harmonized EN ISO 10535 standard.
