Fastening and Tightening 

 

the Restraints

 

The strap with the three-bar and two bar  buckle is constructed 
with a looped end that attaches to the stretcher, and a free end 
that that is used to tighten the restraint (figure 1).

 

 

1

 

Pass  the  three-bar  buckle  and  webbing  upward 

 

through

 

the opening in the two-bar buckle (  fig. 

2).

Pull  slightly  on  the  free  end  of  the  webbing  to  firmly 

 

seat  the  three-bar  buckle  on  top  of  the  two-bar 

 

buckle (fig. 3).

Tighten the restraint by pulling on the free end of the 

 

webbing.

 

4.3  Loosening and unfasten
 

ing  the Restraints 

To loosen a restraint, pull the breakaway tab toward the buckle 
(fig.  4).  Continue  pulling  until  the  restraint  is  as  loose  as 
desired.

 

 

To unfasten the restraint, first loosen as in step number 1, then 
angle  the  three-bar  buckle  and  pass  it downward  through  the 
opening in the two-bar buckle (fig. 5).

Attaching the Restraints

 

The top edge of the Durathene® netting is  shaped with coves to 
provide  points  where  restraints  can  easily  be  fastened  to  the 
lower-rail of the stretcher (fig. 6).

 

 

Select  attachment  points  that  are  appropriate  for  effective 
securing of the patient, as well as for working together with your 
own fastening system.

 

Attach the supplied restraints as folows:

 

1. 

Unfasten the buckle to seperate the restraint straps.

 

2. 

Starting  outside  the  stretcher,  pass  the  looped  end  of  the 
strap inward between the stretcher rail and the netting at a 
chosen attachment point.

 

3. 

Thread  the  buckle  through  the  restraint  loop  (Fig.  8)  and 
pull until the loop is tight around the stretcher rail.

 

4. 

Attach  the  remaining  strap  to  the  opposite  side  of  the 
stretcher following steps 2 and 3.
