separate occupant lap and diagonal restraints provided in the vehicle..
Advice to Client
The lap belt must be checked on a daily basis to ensure it is adjusted correctly and it is free from any obstruction or
adverse wear..
Failure to make sure that the lap belt is secure and adjusted prior to use could cause serious injury to the
user. E.g. too loose a strap may allow the user to slip down in the chair and risk suffocation.
Maintenance
Check lap belt, and securing components; at regular intervals for any sign of fraying or damage. Replace if necessary.
Clean the lap belt with warm soapy water and allow to dry.
Note
The lap belt should be adjusted to suit the end user as detailed above
Sunrise Medical also recommend that the length and fit of the belt is checked on a regular basis to reduce the risk
of the end user inadvertently re-adjusting the belt to an excessive length
If in doubt about the use and operation of the seat belt then ask your healthcare professional, wheelchair
dealer, carer or attendant for assistance.

E. ADJUSTMENTS
1. Footrest heights (Fig. 7) To adjust the height of the footplates, loosen the retaining bolt in the frame tube, reposition
footplate and tighten bolt. For these adjustment use a 10 mm. wrench. A minimum interval of 2.5 centimetres from the
ground should always be maintained.
2. Wheel locks (Fig. 8) For a slight adjustment, loosen the nut of the screw on the clamp, using a 10 mm wrench. Slide the
whole wheel lock forwards or backwards, through the groove of the clamp. For a larger adjustment, remove the screw and
reset the wheel lock in the appropriate hole in the frame. Fix the new position with the screw and nut.
F. CONTROLS AND MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE: All fixings must be checked, adjusted and replaced when necessary throughout the useful lifetime of the
chair. In particular, check the front and rear wheels, brakes, hangers, armrests and upholstery regularly. In addition to the
maintenance and checks, general cleaning of both frame and upholstery can be undertaken. To maintain its appearance
the upholstery should be cleaned regularly. Light soiling can be removed by sponging with a mild detergent and warm
water, wiping in the direction of the texture. Rinse off with clean water before allowing to dry. Do not put upholstery in a
dryer. If dirt is ingrained, the surface should be scrubbed with a soft brush. The frame should be cleaned regularly with a
non-abrasive cleaner followed by polishing with a non-abrasive automotive wax.
