Safety precautions
General
Before putting a Molift NOMAD into operation, the operator must ensure that the lifter and accessories are in good working order, especially with regards to safety.
All instruction and information in this manual regarding safety and general precautions must be read, understood and followed carefully. Any disregard to these precautions may result in personnel injury or damage to the equipment. The lifter must be taken out of service immediately, or not returned to service, if faults and/or irregularities that may have influence on the safety are discovered.
If the lifting movement does not start when the corresponding button is pressed, please consult the troubleshooting table in the maintenance chapter to locate the fault.
Injury to personnel or equipment may occur if
Molift NOMAD is used in an incorrect manner and if:
• covers are removed by unauthorized personnel
• used incorrectly
• insufficient maintenance
• load exceeds maximum limit. The maximum load stated in this manual and on the lifter is the maximum load
• unauthorized repair of electrical devices or cables
Safety devices and -equipment must not be removed, disabled or in any other way altered. A
Molift NOMAD shall only be used when all safety devices and equipment is in place and fully operational.
The lifter is designed for indoor use only, and should not be exposed to sun for a longer period.
Lift and transfer
Several factors have to be considered during movement of the lifter:
• the user shall sit as low as possible facing the direction of movement.
• there is no obstacles in the moving area of the lifter.
The lifter has an expected lifetime of 10 years or 30 000 lifts with max load (SWL), when all recommended service is performed.
Stand to the side of the user when lifting. Ensure that arms and legs are clear of the chair, bed etc.
Try to maintain eye contact with the user - this will help the user feel safe and comfortable.
Pay close attention to your actions. Ensure that all four loops of the sling are securely fastened to avoid the user slipping or falling.
Medical electrical equipment requires special precautions regarding electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC). Portable or mobile radio communication equipment may affect the medical electrical equipment, and should be kept minimum 25 cm (10 inches) from the lifters electronics.
Make sure that there are no damages on the lifter or lifting belt, or accessories, before lifting.

About the product
Molift NOMAD is a portable ceiling lifter intended for lifting and transferring persons. The lifter is made out of light materials and has a battery.
It can be used in institutions with various needs, making it necessary to move the lifter between different rooms.
The lifter has intelligent electronics with soft start/ stop, and a counter to register the number of lift cycles.
Main parts
The lifter consists of a chassis with motor, lifting belt, electronics and battery. A rail system with a trolley is necessary for attachment of the lifter. The lifter has four hooks for attaching the sling with the user.
The lifter can be attached to the trolley directly, or by using an attachment arm. This makes it easy to move between the different rail systems. A climbing strap on the trolley makes it possible to climb from one rail system to another with a user suspended.
Safety devices
Molift NOMAD is equipped with several safety devices, which are intended to prevent personal injury or damage to equipment in the case of incorrect use.
• The lifter has an overload sensor which prevents the lifter from lifting too much. If the weight of the patient is too high, the lifter will stop.
• The lifting hooks are designed to prevent the lifting sling from falling off.
• Electrical system has a protection against overheating. If the temperature on the circuit card is too high, the lifter will stop, and you will have to wait until the temperature goes down.
• The lifter has a sensor which will stop the lifter if the lifting belt is not tight, to avoid it curling up.
• The electrical system registers the lifters operating time, and gives a signal when service is required.
• The battery lamp will illuminate when the lifter needs charging, and an audible signal will sound.
• The lifter features emergency stop and emergency lowering.

If the reason for failure causing an emergency lowering is unknown or if it is a result of failed component, contact your local service representative/dealer or Etac Supply Gjøvik.
Battery care
The batteries of the Molift NOMAD is a 26,4 V cell unit that is placed inside the chassis.
Operating the lifter
Connect the hand control cable to the plug on the back side of the lifter. The hand control has two buttons which gives the operator excellent control of the movement of the lifter up and down. Two buttons with the same function are placed on the right front side of the lifter.
The lifter has a battery light on the hand control which illuminates when the battery voltage drops below a certain level. If there is no hand control connected the battery light on the lifter will illuminate when battery level is low. There will also be an audible alarm, which indicates that the battery needs charging. There is still enough capacity to lower the patient.
Emergency stop and emergency lowering
All Molift lifters are equipped with emergency stop and lowering. The emergency stop button will cut the power to the motor, and is situated on the left front side of the chassis. Turn the button clockwise to reset. Charging and emergency lowering does not work if the emergency stop is activated.
If the battery is discharged during a lift, it is always enough power to lower the user down again.
It is possible to perform an emergency lowering in case of an electronic malfunction or uncontrolled stop. There is an emergency lowering button on the left front side of the chassis with a yellow seal.
Move the lifter to a suitable location to lower the user.
• Puncture the seal and press the emergency lowering button. The lifter will make a smoothly movement downwards.
• If the lifter don’t move, charge the battery, and try the emergency lowering button again. Do
not run the lifter when connected to the charger!
• If none of the actions above works, the user must be lowered manually. Call for assistance.
If the Molift Nomad is operated by the user alone, the Emergency Stop and Emergency lowering button is difficult to operate. Make sure to have a mobile telephone or other communication device available.

Lift and transfer
The suspension shall always be positioned across the user as shown left in the illustration below.
Checklist before use
• Check that the lifter has no visible damage or missing parts.
• Check that the batteries are sufficiently charged
(no light on battery light on hand control or lifter).
• Check that the srvice light is green, meaning no service is needed.
• Make sure that the lifter is properly attached to the trolley and attachment arm, and that the safety hook is locked.
• Check that the lifter functions correctly by running it up and down.
When using slings intended for two point suspension, the suspension shall be used diagonally, i.e. loops from the sling shall be fastened on hooks diagonally opposite.
When transferring the user shall sit as low as possible facing the direction of movement.
Be careful during movement - the suspended user may swing somewhat during turns, stops and starts. Be particularly careful when manoeuvring close to furniture to prevent the suspended user from colliding with these objects. It is preferred to turn the user to face the moving direction.

Maintenance
Cleaning
Detergents must be pH-neutral. Do not use solvents or strong liquids - this may damage surfaces on the lifter. For disinfection when needed; use isopropyl alcohol. Avoid abrasive cleaning products.
Clean surfaces with a damp cloth using an appropriate detergent.
Regular cleaning is recommended and should be implemented in the suitable cleaning routines.
Monthly maintenance
• Run the lifter through the complete installation, and check that it is running smoothly.
• Verify that the hand control contact is firmly in place. Clean contact and hand control with white spirit to remove grease and dirt.
• Check that the hand control cable has no damage.
• Check that the lifting belt has no damage, remove hair, dirt and dust from opening and check that the belt moves out and in easily throughout the length of the belt.
• Run lifter up and down to verify that it moves normally without any abnormal noise.
• Check that the battery and service light gives no signal. Contact local service representative/ dealer or Etac Supply Gjøvik if the lifter does not work properly or if the service light illuminates.
Periodic inspection
Molift recommends periodic inspection of the lifter once a year according to checklist on page
18. Periodic inspection is to be performed by authorized personnel. The rail system has a separate checklist for annually inspection.
One checklist is to be filled in and signed for each lifter after inspection. The owner of the lifter is responsible for keeping the list for information.
Troubleshooting
