The Free Standing Track system is a lifting aid to help lift, position and transfer clients or a disabled family
member. The Free Standing Track system is part of what is termed overhead lift technology which takes ad-
vantage of lifting from above and not from below or the side. The Free Standing Track system makes it possi-
ble to move mobility impaired individuals with minimal strain or risk to the caregiver, while providing com-
plete safety, dignity and comfort for the client or family member.
The Free Standing Track system is designed to work with a Prism Medical Ltd portable lift system such as the
P/C-300 ( Free Standing Track Maximum Safe Working Load is 300lbs). Use of other portable lift units with this
system may be possible. However, please contact your local authorised Prism Medical Ltd dealers in order to
obtain approval before use.
The Free Standing Track system is a floor based free standing system that can be used to lift and transfer indi-
viduals from a bed, chair or similar fixture. It needs basic level of expertise to assemble or setup. It is easy to
assemble and can be completed by just one person in a short period of time. Additionally, no tools are re-
quired. It is also light weight and once dismantled, can be moved to another location. Its quick setup (less than
5 minutes) and lightweight assemblies allows the caregiver to transport and transfer the client with minimum
effort.
