can be used.

harness. These are used with belt fasteners, Diagrams 45 & 46

so that the user’s position is good. Always have qualified person

personnel install them.
- There may be special restrictions on use of the belt.
- Individually adapted information about the use of belt has to be received from the prescriber for every user.

stuck in the belt if it is incorrectly installed or poorly fastened. This can lead to impaired blood/oxygen
supply and risk of the user choking.

- If possible, tighten the belt when in an upright position. If the belt is tightened when the back is in an
backward angled position it may cause pinching when raising it up.
- Be aware of loose belts, they can get caught in the wheels and cause a sudden stop or pinching.
