WARNING! Never leave a mobility
device in manual freewheel mode
during lift system transport, as the
mobility device could roll.
3. Secure the mobility device to the platform using
either the retractable tie-down straps (
see figure 12
)
for power chairs or the automatic lock-down arm for
scooters.
Squeeze together the release and adjustment levers
on the retractable tie-down strap and simultaneously
bring both levers forward to a 90-degree position
until they “click” into place.
See figures 12 and 13
.
This will unlock the tie-down strap.
Pull the strap out and secure it to the chair restraint
tab.
See figure 14
.
Once each strap is secured in the proper position,
squeeze together the release and adjustment levers
and simultaneously bring both levers rearward to
their original positions.
See figures 12 and 15
. This
will lock the tie-down strap.
To tighten the strap, rotate only the adjustment lever
forward and rearward in a ratcheting motion until
the tie-down strap reaches an adequate level of
resistance for mobility device securement.
WARNING! Never attempt to secure the
tie-down straps over the seatback or
armrests of a mobility device.
WARNING! For lift systems equipped
with the automatic lock-down arm, do
not attempt to adjust the pressure of
the arm. This feature has been
configured by your authorized Silver
Star Provider to meet your needs and
requires no further adjustment.
WARNING! If your scooter is equipped
with pneumatic drive tires, make sure
the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended pressure labeled on the tire
sidewall. This will ensure that the
scooter is at the correct deck height for
proper lock-down arm positioning.
NOTE: Inspect the tie-down straps before each use to
ensure there are no signs of fraying or wear. Ensure
that the mobility device is secured properly before
transport. Pride is not liable for damage or loss
resulting from improper securing of a mobility device.
