Guide the restraint belts out of the vehicle, down the ramp
and attach them to the wheelchair frame. Once attached,
press the switch again to lock the restraints from further
release.
Using the winch remote, press the ‘IN’ button, just until
the webbing becomes taut from the winch unit to the
wheelchair.
Move behind the wheelchair and hold the handles. Press
the ‘IN’ button on the remote control and slowly enter the
vehicle. It is important to remain behind the wheelchair for
guidance at all times.
Use the ‘IN’ and “OUT” buttons on the winch remote as
necessary, until the wheelchair is positioned correctly
inside the vehicle.
Disconnect the winch attachment from the wheelchair and
the winch unit, and store it somewhere safe and secure.
Ensure the front restraints are still attached to the
wheelchair correctly. Then fit the remainder of your
restraint system, referring to your restraint handbook for
more information should you need to.
