2-4 Description of Passenger Restraint System
There are two restraint systems employed for passenger comfort and safety, a primary and a
secondary.
2-4A Primary Restraint
The primary restraint system is similar to an airline safety belt. It simply pulls around the
passengers lap and plugs into the receptacle. It is then tightened by pulling end of the strap. The
operator must verify that the seat belt is fastened and snug on customer. The belt is over center
and cannot be inadvertently released
2-4B Secondary Restraint
The secondary restraint system consists of a molded structural steel bar shaped to fit the
passenger. The bars are covered with padding and vinyl covers for passenger comfort. Once
lowered into place, the passengers must not release themselves.
If they release the crotch belt buckle, the shoulder restraint will raise up, the safety switch
will activate and the machine will stop and turn on a yellow caution on the operator panel.
NOTE! If restraint was released in flight the operator option will be same as if an e-stop was
pressed inside by a customer to stop the ride. To get the unit lowered the operator must first
click on "Stop" icon. This will enable the "Lower" icon so operator can normally lower the
ride. Verify machine level before lowering.
To operate, lower the harness to the patrons comfort, close and latch buckle. Before closing
the cockpit again check it for security and that it is locked.
2-5 Height and Weight
Maximum 2 people for a total weight for the ride of 500 lbs. (226.8kg). Minimum height
requirement for the ride is 48 in. (1.22 m) to ride alone or 42" (1.07m) if accompanied by a
responsible adult.
2-6 Customer Pockets
To prevent personal injuries to patrons, the attendant must ask each patron if they have any
objects in their pockets that could come out during the ride. If so, remove and place the items in a
secure container for the duration of the ride. Be sure to remind patrons at the end of their ride to
retrieve their possessions.
