H. FITTING ORS02

 

Fitting the Solo Rear Combined Webbing System - Wheelchair Tie-down:

 

1.  The Solo floor anchors will have been installed in 

the vehicle, in accordance with our own and the 
vehicle converters instruction. A front wheelchair 
tie-down should be secured first, before any rear 
restraints are fitted. 

2.  Place the combined rear Solo webbing restraint 

behind the wheelchair. 

It is acceptable to use the 

restraint either for left hand or right hand use. 
The double inertia reel should be fitted adjacent 
to the 3

rd

 point anchorage (Fig 27).

 

3.  Attach one of the rear tie-down cleats, onto a rear Solo floor 

anchor by aligning the button within the cleat to the slot on 
the floor anchor, (Fig 28), slide the cleat fully home, (raising 
the anchor from its housing if using the retractable Solar floor 
anchor), and rotate the cleat through 90°, (Fig 29), to align the 
karabiner with the wheelchair frame. Install the second rear tie
-down cleat to its anchor in the same way. 

6.  Remove the webbing from the Velcro patch and release the 

over-centre buckle. 

7.  Attach the Karabiner to the wheelchair main frame to create 

an angle of about 30- 45° within the rear view zone (Fig 31). 
(Some chairs will indicate this tie down position).  

8.  Pull the webbing through the over-centre buckle until it is 

tight.  With the free hand begin to close the buckle, once the 
webbing is retained, fully close the buckle using both hands, 
(Fig 30).  Re-secure the Velcro to prevent the loose end from 
becoming a tripping hazard.  

9.  The occupant restraint should now be fitted.
