Description
The FTS-600 is a versatile Human Floor Lift (HFL) designed for self or assisted operation in homes or businesses. It can safely lift individuals weighing up to 600 pounds (272kg) from various seated positions, such as the floor, wheelchair, commode, or couch, to a full standing position. This lift eliminates the risk of injury to the fallen or their helper and facilitates access to higher locations in the home without the need for climbing a stepladder.
Key Details
- Human Floor Lift: IndeeLift Human Floor Lifts (HFLs) are crafted for effortless lifting of individuals from the floor to a standard chair height, aligning with ADA recommendations. The raised-seat height is tailored to facilitate easy standing or transferring for the mobility-challenged, including the elderly, disabled, injured, or those in rehabilitation. Direct transfers are simplified by positioning the seat 1-2 inches above wheelchairs, enabling lift-free sliding onto most wheelchairs.
- Seated Lifts: The IndeeLift FTS is designed to lift a seated person from the floor or any elevated level to a height suitable for direct standing or transfers. If users can walk after standing, the FTS lifts them to a seated level and tilts the seat forward, facilitating a comfortable transfer of weight to their legs. The FTS is suitable for individuals of any height up to 6’4”. For users with limited mobility, direct transfers to a wheelchair are achieved by raising the seat height to about 21” (53 cm), allowing a 1-2 inch (2.5-5cm) height difference for lift-free transfers from various seated positions.
- Use as a Standing Lift: The FTS enables users to be lifted while standing, reaching a secure level 12-14 inches above the floor. This functionality aids users in accessing beds that are an ideal height for standing up but too tall to climb onto directly. It also proves helpful in overcoming single or dual step level changes within the home or office.
- Small Footprint and Easy Portability: The FTS is a portable lift that is rolled around on wheels like a traditional dolly. The small footprint allows it to be positioned in many places other lifts simply cannot go. With a turning radius of 34” (86 cm), the FTS can go just about anywhere including most small bathrooms and hallways.
- Mounting Ramp Seat-Tilt: The FTS features a patented design with a mounting ramp seat, eliminating the need for manual lifting. It includes a tracking function that shifts the seat forward as the user is lifted, transferring weight onto their legs. Users on the floor can either scoot onto the lift using the front ramp or tilt up onto the seat. The FTS seat plate can be locked in a stationary position or unlocked to rotate forward, enabling users to reach a standing position. Two locking tabs at the rear, one on each side of the main vertical column, secure the seat plate.
- Wired Remote: The wired remote has a 5’ (1.5m) retractable cord, allowing the user or a helper to operate the lift. The wired remote has physical, easy-operate button controls that indicate the up and down functionality. The wired remote is stored on the FTS’s handles with the hanger clip.
- Adjustable and/or Removable Rise-Assist Handles: The rise-assist handles have been engineered to provide leverage for the seated party to assist in the process of standing once they are up from the floor. The arms can swing away from the seat when needed. They are also removable to allow for mount assistance or a direct transfer to a wheelchair or other destination.
- Rechargeable Battery: The FTS comes standard with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery pack and charging unit. Charging is accomplished by plugging the charging unit’s AC power cord into a standard AC wall power outlet, (see Preparing the HFL- 400-FTS for use on Page 8). A full charge takes about eight hours. The control system will provide a beep tone when operated and batteries are in need of being charged.
