Interlocking Restraint Belt:
The
VL917IB is equipped with an occu-
pant restraint belt. The belt assem-

The receptacle is mounted to the left
(rear) handrail. The buckle
portion of the belt retracts for
automatic storage of the belt.
Interlock Feature:
Power lift
functions cannot be activated if
the restraint belt is not latched
(buckled). A green indicator
light is built into the pump
module that illuminates when
the belt is latched (see page 5
for further details).
When loading a passenger at
ground level, the attendant must
latch the belt after the passen-
ger has loaded onto the plat-
form. Standees must stand
inboard of the belt and grip the
handrails (if able) when on the
lift platform. The restraint belt
must
be latched whenever a
passenger is on the platform.
