| Hazard Classification |
Class II |
| Reason for the Action |
Aidacare were made aware of a problem with the Aura and Nova patient lifters whereby the bolts that fasten leg spread actuators to the lifter frame can gradually loosen with use over time, eventually leading to bolt detachment.
The result is one or both legs decoupling from the actuators and becoming free to open and close when push/pull forces are applied to move the lifter. This may cause difficulties when moving the lifters while a patient is suspended, potentially leading to knocking patients against carers, walls or equipment. |
