Securing the Power Chair Occupant (Applies to
Transit Systems Rated for Occupied Use Only)
Once the power chair has been properly secured, it is essential that the
power chair occupant be protected for transport.
WARNING! The power chair occupant must be
secured with dynamically crash-tested and
approved pelvic and upper-torso belts or with a
five-point child restraint harness as part of
WTORS.
Always secure the power chair occupant in a forward-facing position in
the vehicle.
Place the pelvic belt across the front of the pelvis near the upper thighs,
not high over the abdomen.
WARNING! The pelvic belt should be angled
between 45 and 75 degrees to the horizontal when
viewed from the side. However, if the user cannot
achieve this standard, an optional zone of 30 to 45
degrees can be utilized safely.
