• Unscrew the screw (34A). Use a 4 mm
Allen key.
• Fit the hip belt as shown in figure 37.
Use the screw you removed.
• Check that the hip belt is correctly
adapted to the wheelchair user. The belt
should lie firmly over the hip at an angle
of approx. 45° from the fixing position
on the wheelchair.
• Make sure the belt is clean and that the
locking mechanism works at all times.
The belt and locking mechanism can be
cleaned using a damp cloth.
Placing the belt over the hip, against
the soft skin of the stomach, can result
in the wrong sitting position and the user
sliding forward in the wheelchair.
