WHEELCHAIR TIE-DOWN RESTRAINTS AND SEAT RESTRAINTS (TRBKTS)
TRBKTS includes four factory-installed wheelchair transport brackets. TRBKTS has
not been crash-tested in accordance with WC 19. Use these transport brackets only
to secure an unoccupied wheelchair during transport.
As of this date, the Department of Transportation has not approved any tie-down
systems for transportation of a user while in a wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any
type. It is Invacare's position that users of wheelchairs should be transferred into
appropriate seating in vehicles for transportation and use be made of the restraints
made available by the auto industry. Invacare cannot and does not recommend any
wheelchair transportation systems.
Only use the transport brackets included with TRBKTS for the purposes described
in the wheelchair base owner's manual.
Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction
with Invacare accessories. Accessories designed by other manufacturers have not
been tested by Invacare and are not recommended for use with Invacare products.
The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt ONLY. It is not designed for use as a
safety device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If
signs of wear appear, belt MUST be replaced immediately.
Wheelchairs should be examined during maintenance for signs of corrosion (water
exposure, incontinence, etc.). Electrical components damaged by corrosion should
be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
