> The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the chest as illustrated Fig. 47.
Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible consistent with use comfort.
> Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use.
> Care should be taken when applying the occupant restraint to position the seatbelt buckle so that the
release button will not be contacted by wheelchair components during a crash.
WARNING
Positioning the occupant restraint for use with Dahl
docking system only
> When using wheelchair with Dahl docking system, the
floor anchorage points for occupant restraint should
be located 10 - 60 mm outside wheels, on each side.
The pelvic belt must be worn low across the front of the pel-
vis - so that the angle of the pelvic belt is within the optional
or preferred zone of 30° - 75°. As shown a steeper (greater)
angle within the preferred zone, 45° - 75° is desirable i.e.
closer to, but never exceeding 75° degrees.
