Lap-Belt
(optional accessory)
The Lap-Belt helps to position the user in
the back of the chair.
Please note that D-Ring Straps are
required to fix the Lap-Belt to the chair.
•
Locate the end of each D-Ring strap
down both sides of the seat cushion at
the rear of the chair.
•
Attach the Lap-Belt using the hook
fastening at the end of each strap to
clip onto the D-Rings.
•
To use the Lap-Belt effectively, undo
the buckle joining the two halves of the
strap by depressing the button on the
central console and place the straps
over the arms or to the side of the seat
before transferring the user into the
chair.
•
When the user is seated, bring the two
sides of the buckle together and
fasten.
•
Adjust the strap by pulling on the
plastic loop to give firm control but
take care not to restrict user
movement.
NOTE: Please refer to Lap-Belt User
Instructions enclosed for further
information.
Pelvic Positioner
(optional accessory)
The Pelvic Positioner is used to help
position users securely in the back of the
chair for those with low muscle tone or
control in their pelvis.

4 Point Harness
(optional accessory)
•
The 4 Point Harness is a useful
positioning aid to prevent users sliding
into an uncomfortable position.
•
The Florien Fife is fitted with a fixing
plate for the 4 Point Harness at time of
manufacture to make adding this
accessory at a later date possible.
•
Locate the metal bar at the back of the
chair behind the seat module.
•
Loop each of the upper, wider straps
of the 4 point harness around this bar
on either side
•
Thread the straps back through the
black plastic sliders located on the
straps to secure their position.
•
Use the sliders to adjust the length of
the straps according to the user.
•
Remove the left armrest (removing
both armrests at the same time could
affect the stability of the user) and
locate the fixing plates on the side of
the seat cushion under the armrest.
•
Take the lower, narrower strap on the
left side of the harness and thread it
through the desired hole of the fixing
plate, under and up. (Choosing a hole
nearer to the front of the chair will
provide more support across the leg of
the user.)
•
After choosing the desired position,
thread the strap back through the
black plastic slider located on the strap
to secure its position.
•
Replace the left arm on the chair and
repeat for the narrow strap on the right
hand side.
