Fitting the Pelvic Positioner to the chair
Ensure the chair is unoccupied before fitting the Pelvic Positioner.
Sit the occupant into the chair with their pelvis firmly back in the seat and their buttocks on the back
edge of the Pelvic Positioner.
Place the Pelvic Positioner in
the seat of the chair with the
buckles pointing towards the
chair front and the clips on the
buckles facing down.
Bring the straps over the
occupant’s thigh and through
the buckles on each end of
the Pelvic Positioner, located
between the occupant’s legs.
Feed the lengths of the straps
through the D-rings on either
side of the seat module.
Pull the straps tight and fasten
down the clips on the buckles.
The fit should be snug – not
too tight and not too loose.
Place the ends of the straps
over the arms of the chair ready
for the occupant to transfer to
the chair.
