Postural belts

A postural belt is an option which can either be fixed to the wheelchair ex-works or can be

retrofitted by your specialist dealer. If your wheelchair is fitted with a postural belt, your specialist

dealer will have informed you about fitting and usage.

The postural belt is used to help the wheelchair user keep an optimum sitting position. Correct use

of the belt assists the user in sitting securely, comfortably and well-positioned in the wheelchair,

especially for such users who do not have such a good sense of balance while sitting.

NOTE:

We recommend using the postural belt whenever the wheelchair is used. The belt should be tight

enough to ensure that you are sitting comfortably and that your body is in the correct sitting

position.

Your wheelchair can be fitted with the following postural belt types ex-works. If your wheelchair has

been fitted with a different belt to those listed below, please ensure that you have received the

manufacturer's documentation with regard to correct fitting and use.

Belt with metal buckle, adjustable both sides

Belt can be adjusted on both sides. This means that the

buckle can be centrally positioned.
