Wheelchair-Anchored Belts

The pelvic belt that is provided by Invacare has been tested for use in a motor vehi-
cle on this wheelchair ONLY. DO NOT replace the pelvic belt with a different style
pelvic belt.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 17.2.
The wheelchair has been provided with a pelvic belt which meets the requirements of
ANSI/RESNA W/C 19.
The pelvic belt, provided by Invacare, has been designed to accommodate use on either
side of the vehicle. If necessary, follow the instructions below to reverse the orientation of
the pelvic belt to accommodate the vehicle-anchored upper torso belt.
1. Install the pelvic belt pin (DETAIL "A" of FIGURE 2) into the large end of the slot in
the belt mounting bracket. Rotate downward and forward until it snaps into place into
the small end of the slot.
NOTE: Note the position of the male end of the belt when installing the pelvic belt onto the belt
mounting brackets. The male end of the pelvic belt (DETAIL "A" of FIGURE 2) has a pin which
is used to secure the vehicle-anchored upper torso belt.
2. Repeat STEP 1 for the opposite belt mounting bracket.
3. Install the vehicle-anchored upper torso belt onto the pin on the male end of the pelvic
belt.
