Positioning the occupant restraint when using 4 strap ties-down
⚠ Warning
The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the front of the pelvis so that the angle
of the pelvic belt is within the optional or preferred zone of 30° to 75° to the horizontal.
A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone, 45° to 75° is desirable. i.e. closer to,
but never exceeding 75°
The use of a postural Hip Belt (Lap Belt) attached to the wheelchair is recommended
only in conjunction with the Three Point Belt restraint. The Hip belt is not to be relied
on as restraint.
