Confined spaces and narrow openings require the stretcher to be rigged with the patient held vertically in order to fit, and these openings usually end with a 90-degree transition. The Vertical-Lift Harness eases the transition over an edge when a high anchor point is not available, such as a parapet roof, out a window, off a tank top, or over a handrail. This reduces the manpower requirements, improves patient care and reduces risk. The unique “spreader bar” allows the stretcher to pivot between the side straps as the head of the stretcher clears the edge. Constructed of 6,000 lbf., oneinch flat web for high strength and lightweight. Buckles allow easy adjustment. Delta Quick Link included. Weight: 2 lbs., 15 oz. (1.3 kg)
