post. Thread positioning strap through tri-glide as shown.

thread through the positioning belt strap. Then wrap around the frame and fasten
together. DO NOT over tighten positioning belt. Repeat steps 2-4 with both ends of
positioning belt.
5. To adjust the positioning belt use the tri-glide buckles and the fastening buckle.
6. The positioning belt should be adjusted so the fastening buckle is situated in the middle
of the stomach.

WARNING
The positioning belt must only be fitted by an approved Sunrise Medical deal-
er/agent. The positioning belt should only be adjusted by a professional, or a
Sunrise Medical approved dealer/agent.
WARNING
The positioning belt must be checked on a daily basis to ensure it is adjusted
correctly (see step 6) and is free from any obstruction or adverse wear.
WARNING
Sunrise Medical does not encourage the transportation of any person in a vehi-
cle using this positioning belt as a method of restraint. Please see Sunrise
Medical transit booklet for further advice on transportation.
Maintenance
Check lap belt and securing components at regular intervals for any sign of frays or damage.
Replace if necessary.
NOTE–
The lap belt should be adjusted to suit the end user as detailed above. Sunrise Medical
recommends that the length and fit of the belt be checked on a regular basis to reduce
the risk of the end user inadvertently re-adjusting the belt to an excessive length.

sories should also perform smoothly. If you have any problems, follow these procedures:
1. Review assembly and adjustment sections to make sure the chair was properly pre-
pared.
2. Review troubleshooting guide.
3. If your problem persists, contact your authorized supplier. If you still have a problem
