12 Informational Supplement
Belt restraints must
not be held away from
the body by power chair
components
such as
armrests
or wheels.
Some power chair components, like armrests and wheels, can interfere
with proper belt fit. It may be necessary to insert the belt between the
armrest and the seatback or through openings between the backrest and
seat in order to avoid placing the pelvic belt over the armrest.
See figure 8.

Place the upper-torso belt across the
middle of the shoulder and the center
of the chest, and connect to the
pelvic belt near the hip of the power
chair occupant. See figure 9.
WARNING! The
upper-torso belt
webbing should not
be worn twisted in a
manner that reduces
the area of contact of
the belt with the
occupant.
