WARNING
Failure to adjust tether belts properly can cause excessive
movement of the seat in an accident. Tether belts should be
adjusted so that they are taut when the seat is in its most upward
and forward position. Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or death. Once the need for replacement of the seat belt has
been determined, be certain it is only replaced with an authorized
PACCAR Parts replacement seat belt. If the inspection indicates
that any part of the seat belt system requires replacement, the
entire system must be replaced. An installation guide is attached to
every replacement belt. Utilize the proper guide for your type of
seat, and follow the instructions very closely. It is vitally important
that all components be reinstalled in the same position as the
original components that were removed and that the fasteners are
torqued to specification. This will maintain the design integrity of
the mounting points for the seat belt assembly. Contact your dealer
if you have any questions concerning seat belt replacement.
