Occupant Restraints Instruction:
1. The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the
front of the pelvis so that the angle of the pelvic belt
is within the preferred zone of 30 to 75 degrees to the
horizontal.
A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is
desirable i.e. closer to, but never exceeding 75degrees.

and across the chest as illustrated Fig d and e
Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible
consistent with user comfort.

intersection of the horizontal and vertical frame tubes.
