PIN 3 point occupant belt
1.
The 3rd point upper anchorage will have been installed in the vehicle in
accordance with our own and the vehicle converter's instruction.
2.
Connect the female connector, of the lap belt with tongue to the wheelchair
tie-down with the male connector, (Fig. 1A), furthest away from the 3rd point
upper anchorage, (Fig. 1E). Connect the female connector, of the lap belt with
buckle to the wheelchair tie-down with male connector, (Fig. 1B), nearest to
the 3rd point upper anchorage, (Fig. 1E).
3.
Draw the lap belts around around the occupant and clip the lap belt tongue
into the lap belt buckle, (Fig. 1C), sitting centrally to the occupant. Adjust as
firmly as possible, consistent with user comfort, such that the lap belt sits
low over the front of the pelvis and bears over the bony part of the body, not
wheelchair components.
4.
Connect the shoulder belt's female pin connector with the lap belt with
tongue's male connector, (Fig. 1D).
5.
Adjust the length of the shoulder belt so the female connector connects with
the 3rd point upper anchorage's male connector, (Fig. 1E).
6.
The lap belt anchor points should be positioned to achieve belt angles of 30°
or more to the horizontal and preferably between 45° and 75° in order to fit
low across the pelvis, reducing the possiblity of the belt loading the abdomen,
(Fig. 2). The pelvic restraint is designed to bear upon the bony structure of the
body and should be worn low across the front of the pelvis with any junctions
between the pelvic and shoulder restraints located near the wearers hips.
PIN Static Seat Belt
Removing the occupant restraint
1.
Disconnect the female connector

2.
Disconnect the torso belt's female
connector point from the 3rd point
male connector fixing, (Fig. 1D).
3.
Disconnect the two lap belt
connector points from the
wheelchair restraint, (Fig. 1A & B),
and remove the restraint from the
occupant. Store safely.
