Transit Securement System
If your power chair is equipped with a transit securement
system, it is equipped with manufacter-installed front and
rear securement brackets and positioning belt anchoring
brackets. See figure 11. Refer to the supplement provided
with your power chair for information on how to use the
transit securement system.
NOTE: In certain configurations, the transit securement
system is not available on power chairs equipped with
an HD option.
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 tie-down straps to only designated,
labeled transit securement points indicated by anchor
symbols on the power chair. See figures 11 and 12.
Tighten the straps to sufficiently 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 12.
MANDATORY! 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.
