Preparing the EASyS Advantage / EASyS Advantage S / EASyS Modular S seat unit, together with the A
chassis Advantage, for transport:
1. Remove the following parts (if attached); abduction block, tray, sun and rain cover without leg blanket, sun umbrella,
grip tray, storage tray, accessory bag, and the contents of the basket.
2. Use the installed rails to correctly position the rehab stroller in the car in the forward direction. Actuate the parking
brake.
3. Make sure that the hip angle setting is fixed at 90°. To this end, the locking pin on the backrest must engage (Fig. 18)
Fastening the EASyS Advantage / EASyS Advantage S / EASyS Modular S seat unit, together with the A
chassis Advantage, in a motor vehicle:
1. The rehab stroller must be safely secured in the vehicle using a 4-point belt system (according to ISO 10542-2,
SAE 2249 or DIN 75078/2). (The manufacturers of these belt systems are, for example, Unwin Safety Systems und
Q'Straint.)
2. The driver and / or the assistant should be familiar with the use of these belt / restraint systems.
3. The two front belts (snap hook) must be attached to the left and right steel rings above the front wheel fork (Fig. 19).
4. The two rear belts (snap hook) must be attached to the two safety tie-down kits on the rear frame (Fig. 20)
Applying the restraint system:
1. The crash test was carried out with a lap belt (available as an accessory). This lap belt should be used under the belt
of the restraint system.
2. The user must be secured with an approved restraint system. Thomashilfen recommends using an automatic belt or a
3-point restraint system. (Manufacturers: Unwin Safety Systems and Q'Straint.)
3. The driver and / or the assistant should be familiar with the use of these belt / restraint systems.
4. The user's lap belt must be positioned flat on the user's pelvis without contacting the abdomen. The lap belt should
extend between the side guide and the user on the right and left sides (Fig. 21).
5. The lap belt must not be separated from the user by parts of the rehab stroller (sides, wheels; Fig. 22)
NOTE: The belt must not be twisted
6. The angle of the lap belt should lie between 30° and 75° (Fig. 23).
7. The lap belt should be as tight as possible, but should also be comfortable for the user.
8. The upper body belt of the restraint system must be fastened to the vehicle wall at a height so that it is ensured that
the belt strap is located in the middle of the user's shoulder and passes under the push handle (Fig. 22).
NOTE: Only a shoulder belt that is fastened to the side wall of the vehicle satisfies the current requirements for safely
restraining the user.
