shoulder safety belt positioning
NOTE
Please obtain the following points for an optimal personal safety of the wheelchair user:
- the pelvic belt should be worn low across the front of the pelvis, so that the angle of the pelvic
belt is within the preferred zone of 30° to 75° to the horizontal, as shown in figure above.
- a steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable.
- belt restraints should not be held away from the body by wheelchair components or parts,
such as the wheelchair armrests or wheels, along with an illustration similar to that of the
figure shown above.
- upper torso belts should fit over the shoulder and across the chest, as illustrated in figure of
the shoulder safety belt positioning.
- belt restraints should be adjusted as tightly as possible, consistent with user comfort.
- belt webbing should not be twisted when in use.
