Pelvic Restraint Belt (continued)
When fastened check space between the lap belt and user. When
correctly adjusted it should not be possible to insert more than the
flat of the hand between the pelvic restraint belt and the user, (Fig.
6.15.7).
The lap belt should be fxed so that the belt sits at an angle of 45
degrees across the users pelvis. The user should be upright and be
as far back as possible in the seat when correctly adjusted. The pelvic
restraint belt should not allow the user to slip down in the seat,.(Fig.
6.15.8).
To fasten buckle:
Firmly push male buckle into female buckle, (Fig. 6.15.9).
To release buckle:
Press the RED button in the centre of the buckle then pull the two
halves gently apart, (Fig. 6.15.10).
NOTE: If you have any questions on the use and operation of the
pelvic restraint belt, the please contact your wheelchair dealer, carer
or attendant.
