Chest Belt - Otto Bock ParaGolfer Instructions For Use Manual

6.3.3 Chest belt

WARNING
Risk of injury due to tipping out of the wheelchair. Acci-
dentally unfastening the chest belt can cause the user to
fall out of the wheelchair. If the movements or cognitive
abilities of the user can cause the belt to be accidentally
unfastened, then an attendant must be present at all times
while in use. Ensure that the lap belt is used at all times.
The chest belt consists of a flat foam pad with belt and runs
at chest height around the backrest tubes. It has to be
threaded through the 2 belt retaining eyelets on the back.
It must be applied tightly on the chest for fixation. To do so,
first insert the buckle into the lock until it engages (see
fig. 14 a) and then pull both belt ends (see fig. 14 b), so that
the belt is tight and the buckle centred on the chest.
