release the seat belts, grasp the top of the buckle opposite the link and pull
upward.
SHOULDER HARNESSES
Each front seat shoulder harness is attached to a rear doorpost above
the window line and is stowed behind a stowage sheath above the cabin
door. To stow the harness, fold it and place
it
behind the sheath. When
shoulder harnesses are furnished for the remaining
seats,
they are
attached above and aft of the side windows. Each harness is stowed behind
a stowage sheath above the side windows.
To use the shoulder harness, fasten and adjust the seat belt first.
Lengthen the harness as required by pulling on the connecting link on the
end of the harness and the narrow release strap. Snap the connecting link
firmly onto the retaining stud on the seat belt link half. Then adjust to
length. A properly adjusted harness will permit the occupant to lean
forward enough to sit completely erect, but prevent excessive forward
movement and contact with objects during sudden deceleration. Also, the
pilot will want the freedom to reach all controls easily.
Removing the shoulder harness is accomplished by pulling upward on
the narrow release strap, and removing the harness connecting link from
the stud on the seat belt link. In an emergency, the shoulder harness may be
removed by releasing the seat belt first and allowing the harness, still
.
attached to the link half of the seat belt, to drop to the side of the seat.
INTEGRATED SEAT BELT /SHOULDER HARNESSES WITH
INERTIA REELS
Integrated seat belt/shoulder harnesses with inertia reels
are
availa-
,,...-.--.,
ble for the pilot and front seat passenger. The seat belt/ shoulder harnesses
extend from inertia reels located in
the
cabin top structure, through the
overhead console marked PILOT and COPILOT, to
attach
points inboard of
the two front
seats.
A separate seat belt half and buckle is located outboard
of the seats. Inertia reels allow complete freedom of body movement.
However,
in
the event of a sudden deceleration, they will lock automatical-
ly to protect the occupants.
To use the seat belt/ shoulder harness, position the adjustable metal
link on the harness just below shoulder level, pull the link and harness
downward,
and insert the link in the seat belt buckle. Adjust belt tension
across the lap by pulling
upward
on the shoulder
harness.
Removal is
accomplished by releasing the seat belt
buckle,
which will allow the
inertia reel to pull the harness inboard of the
seat.
