Be aware that the centre of gravity is shifted forwards

Risk of sliding
–
The pelvic belt must be placed tight to the body.
–
Our wheelchairs must always be used with a seat
cushion. If the length of the belt has been adjusted to
fit one type of seat cushion height, it is important that
this cushion is used. If the seat cushion is replaced, the
length of the belt needs to be adjusted.
–
The seat must be positioned flat or tilted backwards
if the user is left alone unattended.
CAUTION!
Risk of sliding
–
If you have a very low seat height and / or use your
feet to maneuver the wheelchair, the legrests can be
removed. If so, be aware of the sliding risk!
Belts which are CE-marked for the purpose of using on
wheelchairs, can be mounted on the chair with preserved
CE-marking. The belts should be fitted by the responsible
prescriber and be mounted by an experienced technician.
However, when transporting the wheelchair in a vehicle,
Invacares original pelvic belt must be used as a complement
to the safety belt in the vehicle!
The purpose of a positioning belt is to position the user and
to give him / her a better posture.
The belt should be placed in the front attachment bracket
when used for positioning of the thighs/knees.
The belt should be placed in the lower slot on the backrest
attachment bracket when used for positioning of the thighs.
