Restraint Belt Angles
Locate wheelchair in forward-facing position center-
ing wheelchair squarely within "L" track. The front
and rear belts, when attached, should create angles
approximately as shown in Figure 2. Preferred
angles and locations of belts from wheelchair se-
curement points to vehicle anchor points are shown.
Front tie-downs should be angled out far for lateral
stability when possible. Note: These are optimum
angles and cannot be achieved in some cases.
