5. Lap belt
Before using your wheelchair ensure the seat belt is worn and correctly adjusted before use.
The lap belt is fitted to the wheelchair as shown in the illustrations. The lap belt is fitted between the armrest support and
the backrest tube. The belt should then be run across the outside of the back upholstery.
It is important that the belt is routed around the back of the wheelchair. The buckle end can be fed between
the armrest and backrest.
Adjust the belt position so that the buckles are in the centre of the seat.
Adjust the lap belt to suit the user's needs as follows:
To increase the belt length:

When fastened check space between the lap belt and the user, when correctly adjusted it should be possible to insert the
flat of the hand between the lap belt and the user.
Generally the Lap Belt should be fixed so that the straps sit at an angle of approximately 45°, and when correctly adjusted
should not allow user to slip down in the seat
