Description
What is the Drive RTL6045 transfer board?
The Drive RTL6045 is a 30 inch wood transfer board with a handle cut-out at each end. Drive makes it from Baltic birch with a clear lacquer finish, tapers the ends, and rounds the corners. The spec sheet rates it to 440 lb and prints a limited 6 month warranty. It is for moving between a wheelchair and another surface, not for lifting someone.
Who is a wood transfer board for?
It is for a person who can slide with some help, or with a caregiver guiding the move, and who wants a firm bridge instead of a fabric sheet. The handles give the caregiver a place to hold the board steady. If the person cannot slide at all, a board is the wrong tool. Look at a floor lift and sling instead.
How do you use it?
Set the tapered end under the hip on the surface you are leaving and the other end on the surface you are moving to. The two surfaces should be close and as level as you can make them. Hold the board by the cut-outs so it does not kick out. Drive's sheet does not print a width or a product weight, so this page does not invent those numbers.

How does this compare with other transfer aids?
A wood board is stiff and short. A fabric slide, such as the aids on the transfer and repositioning page, folds into a bag and does a different job. This RTL6045 is the 30 inch board with handles. It is not the longer bariatric board Drive sells under a different item number.
Care and warranty
Wipe the lacquer with a damp cloth and keep the board dry between uses. Drive's spec sheet prints a limited 6 month warranty. Drive has not published a separate owner's manual for RTL6045 on the product page, so this listing attaches the spec sheet only.
