The Maxi 500 combines safety, reliability, and comfort in a completely powered package. The battery-powered machine is designed specifically to ensure that a single caregiver can manage a wide range of transfers and handling routines with unparalleled control and ease. Its compact design can lift up to 500 pounds while still easily navigating narrow spaces. The chassis legs have a low clearance to fit under everything from low-clearance beds to wheelchairs, and are electronically width-adjustable to accommodate a variety of actions, including bed transfers, wheelchair transfers, and even lifting the patient from the floor in the event of a fall.
This powerful, versatile lift is designed to accommodate those who are completely dependent or have little to no capacity for supporting themselves, making them almost entirely dependent on the caregiver. A comprehensive range of compatible slings and hangar bars ensure the lift can be used for a variety of applications, including toileting, bathing, transferring to and from bed, transitioning in and out of wheelchairs, and even lifting patients safely from the floor in the event of a fall.
The Maxi 500 utilizes a Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) that allows caregivers to lift, transfer, and precisely position patients with ease. Both a handset and operation panel on the mast can be used to control the lift and provide caregivers flexibility of use. An optional scale can be built in to the lift, allowing patients to be weighed in the sling with ease and eliminating the time it would take to transfer patients to a fixed scale and back again.
