11.4 Positioning belt
The positioning belt can be mounted in two different ways:
1) In the predestined mounting holes on the backrest hinge.
2) Mounted on the seat rail, this gives more flexibility of belt positions.
The kind of mounting may also depend on the type of armrests or hip supports
which are mounted.
mounted on backrest hinge mounted on seat rail
To adjust the seat belt position on the seat rail, we take the following steps:
Step 1: Loosen the 3 bolts (T) using 3mm key, until the bracket can be moved.
Step 2: Move the bracket in the required position.
Step 3: Fasten all the bolts.
Make sure the brackets are tightening properly to avoid sliding of the seat
belt along the seat rail. A sliding seat belt might result in poor seating
position of the user.
The positioning belt is not to be used as a safely belt. If the wheelchair is
transported in an occupied position, the user needs to wear a safety belt
which is mounted in the vehicle he or she is transported in.
Additionally, we strongly advice to keep the positioning belt strapped as
well as it secures you position in the seat. A car safety belt doesn’t fulfil
that support. So use both and you are safe and positioned.
