J. CANOPY
WARNING
When using the canopy, make sure that it is secure by checking the
clamps that hold it to the base.
K. SEATING SYSTEMS
WARNING
DO NOT change the seating system, or individual components of
your dependent mobility device unless you have first consulted your
health care professional.
L. PELVIC POSITIONING BELTS
WARNING
The positioning belt is predominately used to support your posture.
It can also be used to limit slipping and/or sliding that you might
experience when the chair is in motion. The positioning belt is not a
transit rated safety belt and should not be used in the place of a seat
belt while being transported in a motor vehicle. Improper use of
Positioning belts may cause severe injury or death. If you use a
positioning belt, be sure to follow the recommendations in this
section:
1. Make sure the rider does not slide down in the wheelchair
seat. If this occurs, the rider may suffer chest compression or
suffocate due to pressure from the belts.
2. The belts must be snug, but must not be so tight that they
interfere with breathing. You should be able to slide your open
hand, flat, between the belt and the rider.
3. A pelvic wedge or a similar device can help keep the rider from
sliding down in the seat. Consult with the rider’s doctor, nurse
or therapist to find out if the rider needs such a device.
4. Use positioning belts only with a rider who can cooperate.
Make sure the rider can easily remove the belts in an
emergency.
5.
NEVER use the positioning belts:
•
As a patient restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
• On a child who is comatose, agitated or is prone to seizures.
•
As a motor vehicle restraint. In an accident or sudden stop
the rider may be thrown from the chair. Wheelchair
positioning belts will not prevent this, and further injury may
result from the belts or straps.

tural support. If seating component modifications are necessary,

N. TILT AND RECLINE

Using the tilt or recline adjustments triggers before taking the nec-
essary precautions may effect the balance and stability of your
device. BEFORE making these adjustments you must be aware of
the following:
1. The child must be secure in the device.
2. You must rotate the front casters forward, and engage the
parking brake.
3. ALWAYS make certain that the dependent mobility device is
level and stable before adjusting the tilt and/or recline.
4. ALWAYS support the seating shell when releasing the tilt
trigger.
