TRANSPORTATION
The Gill 2 Seating System is the result of experienced, thoughtful design and
rigorous testing over 12 months of in-house testing and frontal impact testing.
The Gill 2 was successfully tested to
ISO 16840-4 at the Transport
Research Laboratory in May 2013,
using the HIII 5th Percentile Test
Dummy to 49Kg.
However, this does not imply and is not
intended to imply in any way, that the
GILL 2 Seating System is suitable for
transporting an occupant in a motor
vehicle in any other way than with the
GILL 2 Seating System being correctly
interfaced with a surrogate wheelchair
of a type and model which has been successfully tested in its own right, to meet
the requirements of ISO 7176-19 (Wheeled mobility devices for use in Motor
Vehicles).
The transporting vehicle
MUST
be suitably equipped with wheelchair and
occupant restraint systems compliant with ISO 10542.
Under No Circumstances
should any part of a transportation restraint
system, be attached directly to the GILL 2 Seating System.
ALWAYS
check both backrest retaining strap buckles (Fig.4) are connected &
tensioned sufficiently prior to using the GILL 2 on transportation.
Whilst provision is made on the GILL 2 Backrest for attachment of an ancillary
Postural Positioning Harness, which, if fitted, should still be utilised as normal
during any transportation period, this positioning device should
NEVER
be
used as the sole method of occupant restraint during transportation.

above testing, are manufactured by:-
