Peterbilt 220, Operator'S Manual

WARNING
Failure to adjust tether belts properly
can cause excessive movement of the
seat in an accident. Tether belts
should be adjusted so that they are
taut when the seat is in its most up-
ward and forward position. Failure to
comply may result in personal injury or
death. Once the need for replacement
of the seat belt has been determined,
be certain it is only replaced with an
authorized PACCAR Parts replace-
ment seat belt. If the inspection indi-
cates that any part of the seat belt sys-
tem requires replacement, the entire
system must be replaced. An installa-
tion guide is attached to every replace-
ment belt. Utilize the proper guide for
your type of seat, and follow the in-
structions very closely. It is vitally im-
portant that all components be rein-
stalled in the same position as the
original components that were re-
moved and that the fasteners are tor-
qued to specification. This will main-
tain the design integrity of the mount-
ing points for the seat belt assembly.
Contact your dealer if you have any
questions concerning seat belt re-
placement.
Wearing Seat Belts
• The belt must be tight against the
body and not distorted.
• With a three-point type belt, the
shoulder section must be across
center of the shoulder, not against
the neck. The pelvis section should
be as low as possible across the
pelvis, not across the abdomen.
• Do not put any hard, sharp or
fragile objects such as pens,
glasses or phones between your
body and the seat belt.
Checking the Seat Belts
• Give a short pull on the seat-belt to
test the locking mechanism.
• Repeat this check regularly, for
example when putting on the seat
belt, in order to check the
mechanism.
During this test, the belt must lock. This
means that it must not be possible to pull
the seat belt out of the retracting unit after
locking.
The locking mechanism should be
immediately replaced and/or repaired if it is
defective.
• Inspect the belts regularly for wear.
Have the complete assembly
replaced at once if the belt is worn
or damaged.
