INSTALLATION: TWO-POINT PELVIC SUPPORT BELTS
1. Based on clinical goals, determine the most effective position and angle for the belt. Determine whether
putting pull strap on left or right side is best for user.
2. Locate desired mounting points on the seating system or wheelchair frame.
3. Attach end-fittings to rigid seat base or wheelchair frame using optional Bodypoint belt mounting
hardware, if needed.
4. Center the belt on the user, thread the strap ends through the end-fittings, and adjust to desired length.
5. Tighten the belt until it is snug.
INSTALLATION: FOUR-POINT PELVIC SUPPORT BELTS
1. Follow the installation instructions above to fit and
install the belt to stabilize and position the user.
2. Attach the secondary straps to the wheelchair to
prevent the belt from shifting.

ADJUSTMENT
When the belt is properly adjusted and tightened, it should fit snug, with all
slack removed, so that the user is secure.
Use the pull strap for daily adjustments, such as to accommodate changes in
clothing. If additional length adjustment is necessary to achieve a good fit or
the belt needs to be removed for cleaning, this can be done using the belt
end-fittings.
SAFETY CHECK
When properly positioned in wheelchair, have user lean forward and side to
side to check fit. Check for:
1. Normal operation of buckle and adjustment straps.
2. Comfort – Look for areas of irritation.
3. Position – If too high or too low, adjust mounting points.
4. Move chair through full range of motion, including tilt, folding, and rolling.
Check for any interference and relocate mounting points as necessary.
