6.19 Pelvic Restraint Belt
DANGER!
•
Before using your wheelchair ensure the lap belt is
worn.
•
The lap belt must be checked on a daily basis to
ensure it is free from any obstruction or adverse wear.
• Always make sure that the lap strap is correctly
secured and adjusted prior to use. If the strap is too
loose it could cause the user to slip down and risk
suffocation or cause serious injury.
The lap belt is fitted to the wheelchair as shown in the
illustrations. The seat belt comprises 2 halves. They are
fitted using the existing seat stay retaining bolt fitted
through the eyelet on the belt. The belt is routed under
the rear of the side panel. (Fig. 6.46)
Adjust the belt position so buckles are in the centre of the
seat. (Fig. 6.47)
Adjust lap belt to suit the user’s needs as follows:
To reduce the belt length
To increase the belt length
Feed free belt back
through male buckle and
slide adjusters. Ensure
belt is not looped at male
buckle.
Feed free belt through
slide adjusters and male
buckle to provide more
belt length.
When fastened check space between the pelvic restraint
belt and user. When correctly adjusted it should not be
possible to insert more than the flat of the hand between
the lap belt and the user. (Fig. 6.48).
The lap belt should be fixed so that the belt sits at an
angle of 45 degrees across the user’s pelvis. The user
should be upright and be as far back as possible in the
seat when correctly adjusted. The lap belt should not
allow the user to slip down in the seat. (Fig. 6.49)
