Please Note:
NRS recommend the user wears the safety belt
at all times when using the aid for transfers over
any distance >1—2 metres or if the user has
difficulty standing unassisted for extended
periods.
3 Sizes of belt are available:
3.1 To fit the belt for short distance transfers:
1.
Pass the belt loosely around the
standing user, figure 1.
2.
Position the belt under the bottom and
lower back such that the elastic section
is at the top, figure 2.
3.
Fasten using the Velcro strap, figure 3.
Ensure the belt fits snugly around the user
and cannot slide up or down.
4.
Attach one of the straps to the transfer
aid by looping over one of the buttons
on the handle frame, figure 4, 5.
There are two button heights. Choose the
height which gives the most comfortable belt
location for the user. The belt should be fixed
to buttons at the same height on each side.
5.
Pull the strap down until it is fully
engaged over the button, figure 6.
6.
Pull the other strap taught and secure it
by looping over the corresponding
button on the handle frame, figure 7.
7.
To release the belt, reverse these
actions.
