4.1 Pelvic belt
Your wheelchair can be fitted with a pelvic belt which will prevent
you from sliding forward in the wheelchair or from falling out
of the wheelchair.
WARNING!
Risk of serious injuries through strangulation.
–
Ensure that you are sitting fully back in the seat
and that the pelvis is as upright and symmetrical
as possible - not forward on one side or tilted
back.
–
Position the lap belt so that the hip bones can
be felt above the belt.
–
Adjust the length using the buckles so that
there is just sufficient room for your hand to
slide between your body and the belt. It is
recommended that the clasp is kept in a central
position, i.e. make adjustments to each side.
–
Make sure that the belt cannot slide and the
clasp does not dissolve. Refit the pelvic belt if
necessary,
