Entroy Pool Lift

Reason

A potential for the chair or stretcher detachment from Entroy pool lifter is caused by a fact that caregiver may suppose that the pin has been paired with the seat/stretcher, but there could be a misalignment that might be unnoticed by the caregiver so the seat/stretcher does not get fully paired.  Instead, once the lift reaches a certain height, the seat/stretcher falls off the lift. To raise awareness and reduce risk a quick reference guide will be installed with the Entroy pool lift device.
