* LIFTING CAPACITY DETAILS:
- Body bags with handles are designed for lifting and carrying with a horizontal orientation, especially on stairs or slopes. Users should centralize the weight, and must lift with opposing handle pairs simultaneously to avoid handle failure. Body bags lifted or carried at an angle can overload stress points. Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to handle or bag failure. Additional apparatus for transport may be required for certain situations.
- Lift or carry handle-less bags at your own risk.
- Never drag body bags on rough surfaces.
