Fit and use

Fitting the rear wheelchair tie-down

1. 

Moving to the wheelchair rear, select rear webbing tie-down so that the 

karabiner faces outboard from wheelchair (Fig 6). 

2. 

To attach the first pair of tie-downs, press on the ribbed part of the ATF 

 

(Fig 7A) and push firmly towards the wheelchair until the yellow clip drops and 

locks into place. Install the second clip. The position of this must be in line with 

the first. 

IMPORTANT: Check the clips are fully engaged on both sides.

3. 

The first pair of tie-downs must be as close as possible to the rear of the 

wheelchair (Fig 7) with the karabiners fitted onto the securement points as 

shown in the wheelchair manufacturer’s Instructions for Use. If the wheelchair 

manufacturer’s Instructions For Use in Transport indicate two pairs of tie-down 

attachment points then fit the karabiners to the lower points first. The yellow 

plungers must face the rear of the vehicle. 

4.  Pull the webbing gently through the over-centre buckle to remove any slack and 

create an angle of around 40 to 45° (Fig 10). 

5.  Pull the webbing through the over-centre buckle until it is tight. With the free 

hand, begin to close the buckle. Once the webbing is retained, fully close the 

buckle using both hands. Re-secure the Velcro to prevent the loose end from 

becoming a trip hazard. 

Note: Do not over tension the tie-down straps. Apply 

sufficient tension to the webbing straps so that the body of the over-centre 

buckle can be rotated 90° on either side of it’s natural line of attachment with 

moderate hand effort (Fig 9).

 

6.  Attach a second pair of tie-downs to the appropriate securement points on the 

wheelchair as indicated in the manufacturer’s Instructions For Use. The track 

fitting must be positioned as close as possible behind the 1

st

 pair (Fig 8). 

7.  Tension the second pair of tie-downs in a similar manner. Check that similar 

tension exists in all four webbing straps, adjusting where necessary (Fig 8). 

IMPORTANT: Ensure that all the karabiner gates are fully closed (Fig 2).

 

8. 

The occupant restraint must now be fitted. 

Removing the rear tie-downs

 

IMPORTANT: First remove the occupant 

restraint, as instructed on pages 14 and 

15.

1. 

Release the over-centre buckles on 

the first pair of rear straps, loosen the 

webbing and remove the karabiner 
from the wheelchair.

2.  Pull the webbings, close the over-

centre buckles and re-secure the 
Velcro. 

3.  Lift the  yellow retaining clip fully 

and pull away from the wheelchair 

to remove the first set of rear straps 

from the rail. Repeat operation with 
the second set of rear straps.
