Adjustment
When the belt is properly adjusted and tightened, it should fit snug so that the user’s pelvis is secure. See Figures 7-9
and 7-11. If length adjustment is necessary to achieve a good fit or to remove the belt for cleaning, this can be done
using the belt end fittings.
Safety Check
When properly positioned in wheelchair, the wheelchair user should lean forward and side to side to check the fit.
Check for:
1. Normal operation of adjustment straps.
2. Comfort: look for areas of irritation.
3. Position: if too high or too low, adjust anchor points.
4. Interference with other devices: relocate anchor points as necessary.
5. Move chair through full range of motion, including folding, and rolling. Check for any interference.
Maintenance
Check periodically for signs of wear in the stitching and webbing. If significant wear is found, contact your supplier for
qualified repair or replacement by TiLite.
