Maneuverability / Portability
The PL400H features a compact frame with smooth-rolling casters for controlled movement around furniture and tight spaces. The manually adjustable base allows caregivers to open and close the legs for improved positioning during transfers.
Support / Performance
This lift uses a hydraulic pump system to provide steady, controlled lifting without reliance on electricity. Its 400 lb capacity supports a wide range of users, while the six-point spreader bar helps evenly distribute weight for safer transfers.
The PL400H supports common transfer scenarios including bed-to-chair, wheelchair transfers, and floor recovery.
Comfort / Usability
Designed for full-body sling support, this lift allows for secure positioning throughout the transfer process. The simple hydraulic operation gives caregivers consistent control without complex electronics or maintenance requirements.
Design & Convenience
The PL400H is built for durability and simplicity. Tool-free assembly and disassembly make it easier to transport or store, while optional upgrades—including a digital scale or electric conversion (PL400HE)—provide flexibility as needs change.
