Transit Securement System
If your power chair is equipped with a transit securement
system, it is equipped with manufacturer installed front
and rear securement brackets and may be equipped with
positioning belt anchoring brackets. See figure 6. Refer to the
supplement provided with your power chair for information
on how to use the transit securement system.
Power Chair Securement Points
The power chair is equipped with four (4) tie-down points for
the purpose of securing the unoccupied power chair during
motor vehicle transport. Each tie-down is clearly labeled for
this purpose.
To secure a power chair equipped with tie-down points:
Always secure the power chair in a forward-facing
position in the vehicle.
Attach the four (4) tie-down straps to only designated,
labeled transit securement points indicated by anchor
symbols on the power chair. See figures 6 and 7.
Tighten the straps sufficiently to remove all slack.
Never attach tie-downs to adjustable, moving, or
removable parts of the power chair such as armrests,
front riggings, and wheels.
Position the anchor point for the rear tie-down straps
directly behind the rear securement points on the power
chair. The front tie-down straps should be anchored to
floor points that are spaced wider than the power chair
to provide increased stability. See figure 7.
The power chair should be used as indicated in the
manufacturer's instructions. If you have any questions
about the proper use of your power chair, contact your
Quantum Rehab Provider.
