Positioning Belt
Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning
belt that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See fig-
ure 20. The positioning belt is designed to support the
operator so that he/she does not slide down or forward
in the seat. The positioning belt is not designed for use
as a restraining device.
WARNING! The positioning belt is not
designed for use as a seat belt in a
motor vehicle. Nor is your power chair
suitable for use as a seat in any
vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle
should be properly belted into seats
approved by the vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING! The positioning belt should
be secured at all times. Never allow
the positioning belt to hang or drag on
the floor as it may become entangled.
To install the positioning belt:
1. Remove the rearmost screw that holds the seat
hinge to the seat base on both the left and right seat
hinges.
2. Insert the screw through the supplied washer,
through the positioning belt and into the seat base
for each side of the power chair seat.
3. Tighten both screws.
