Positioning Belt
Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning belt
that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See figure 19. The
positioning belt is designed to support the operator so that he/
she does not slide down or forward in the seat. The position-
ing belt is not designed for use as a restraining device.
WARNING!
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 posi-
tioning belt to hang or drag on the floor as it
may become entangled.
To install the positioning belt:
1. Remove the 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.
3. Tighten both screws.
To adjust the positioning belt for operator comfort:
1. Once seated, insert the metal tab on one side of the belt into the plastic housing on the opposite side until you
hear a click. See figure 19.
2. Pull the excess strap attached to the metal tab until it is secure, but not so tight as to cause discomfort.
To release the positioning belt:
1. Press the push button mechanism on the plastic housing.
MANDATORY! Make sure the positioning belt is properly secured to the power chair and is
adjusted for operator comfort before each use.
MANDATORY! Inspect the positioning belt for loose parts or damage, including tears, worn
spots, bent hardware, damaged latch mechanisms, dirt and debris, before each use of the power
chair. If you discover a problem, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider for maintenance and
repair.
