METHOD OF ADJUSTMENT:
Ensure you are sitting correctly, i.e. fully back in the seat, and the pelvis is as upright and symmetrical as
possible – not forward on one side or tilted back.
Position the lap belt so that the hip bones can be felt above the belt.
Adjust the length of the lap belt using the buckle(s). As a guide, adjust the length so that there is just sufficient
room for your hand to slide between your body and the belt. For ease of use it is recommended that the
clasp is kept in a central position where possible i.e. make adjustments to each side.
Please check your lap belt every week to ensure that it is in good condition, i.e. no damage, fraying etc. and
that it is securely fixed to the wheelchair.
WARNING:
If it is intended that your wheelchair is to be used as a seat for transportation in a vehicle INVACARE
recommend the use of a metal buckled type lap belt (please check that your wheelchair has been tested to
ISO 7176 part 19 – refer to transportation section of this user manual).
During transportation the user should be restrained independently of the wheelchair by a suitably approved
restraint system, the lap belt should be used in addition to but never as a substitute for an approved
passenger restraint system.
