Positioning Belt
Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning
belt that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See
figure 20. The positioning belt is designed to support the
operator so that he/she does not slide down or forward in
the seat. The positioning belt is not designed for use as a
restraining device.
WARNING! The positioning belt should
be secured at all times. Never allow the
positioning belt to hang or drag on the
floor as it may become entangled.
To install the positioning belt:
1. Remove the rearmost screw that holds the seat hinge
to the seat base on both the left and right seat hinges.
2. Insert the screw through the supplied washer,
through the positioning belt and into the seat base for
each side of the power chair seat.
3. Tighten both screws.
To adjust the positioning belt for operator comfort:
1. Once seated, insert the metal tab on one side of the
belt into the plastic housing on the opposite side until
you hear a click. See figure 20.
2. Pull the excess strap attached to the metal tab until it
is secure, but not so tight as to cause discomfort.
To release the positioning belt:
1. Press the push button mechanism on the plastic
housing.
MANDATORY! Make sure the
positioning belt is properly secured to
the power chair and is adjusted for
operator comfort before each use.
MANDATORY! Inspect the positioning
belt for loose or damaged parts before
each use of the power chair. If you
discover a problem, contact your
authorized Pride Provider for
maintenance and repair.
