Use of SupportStraps as leg harness for EasyBelt/FlexiBelt/ReadyBelt
Read and follow the instruction in the user manual for the belt.
SupportStraps are secured to the appropriate handle at the back of the belt, so
that the straps are behind the user’s hips.
Secure each SupportStrap to the belt by drawing the strap through the hole and then through itself to
form a loop.
Pull the straps between the user’s legs and then secure the clasps to the appropriate
handles on the front of the belt.
The straps now function as a leg harness and prevent the belt from sliding upward during
transfer/gait training.
Adjust the straps and the belt, so that the leg harness fits comfortably. The handles may
be better placed if a different size is used.
Use as side support with ReTurn7500/7400
Follow the user manuals for ReTurn and ReTurnBelt.
Remove the padded cases from the SupportStraps.
Secure the SupportStraps to ReTurn. Loop the loops around the
outer, vertical posts on the ladder.
Secure the SupportStraps to the appropriate handles on each side
of the ReTurnBelt when the user has risen to a standing position.
Adjust the length of the straps. They should always be extended,
with sufficient tension to ensure optimal support.
