Positioning Belt
Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning
belt that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See
figure 21. The positioning belt is designed to support
the operator so that he/she does not slide down
or forward in the seat. The positioning belt is not
designed for use as a restraining device.
WARNING! The positioning belt is
not designed for use as a seat belt
in a motor vehicle. Nor is your power
chair suitable for use as a seat in
any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a
vehicle should be properly belted
into seats approved by the vehicle
manufacturer.
WARNING! The positioning belt should
be secured at all times. Never allow
the positioning belt to hang or drag on
the floor as it may become entangled.
To install the positioning belt:
1. Remove the rearmost screw that holds the seat hinge to the seat base on both the left and right seat hinges.
2. Insert the screw through the supplied washer, through the positioning belt, and into the seat base for each side
of the power chair seat.
3. Tighten both screws.
To adjust the positioning belt for operator comfort:
1. Once seated, insert the metal tab on one side of the belt into the plastic housing on the opposite side until you
hear a click. See figure 21.
2. Pull the excess strap attached to the metal tab until it is secure, but not so tight as to cause discomfort.
To release the positioning belt:
1. Press the push button mechanism on the plastic housing.
MANDATORY! Make sure the positioning belt is properly secured to the power chair and is
adjusted for operator comfort before each use.
MANDATORY! Inspect the positioning belt for loose parts or damage, including tears, worn spots,
bent hardware, damaged latch mechanisms, dirt or debris, before each use of the power chair.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Pride Provider for maintenance and repair.
