SeatIng and Securement
18
There must be a straight line from the
anchorage to the wheelchair attachment
for proper belt angles. See Figure 7 for
proper belt angles.
Attach the tie down to a solid frame
member of the wheelchair.
Ensure belts are under tension and not
loose or sagging.
Install the tie down anchorage with
center-to-center distance as shown in
Figure 8.
Do not allow belts to be twisted inside
the belt retractor. The recommended
center-to-center distances are based on
common wheelchair sizes. Exceptionally
large or small wheelchairs may require
anchorage spacing that differs from
our recommendation. Use the belt
angles from Figure 7 to determine exact
placement of the tie down in the “L” track.
Each of the four supplied tie downs
secures the wheelchair to the vehicle’s
“L” tracks. The seat-belt extension is
provided to use with the vehicle’s seat
belts.
