WARNING

Position and secure (buckle, engage, fasten, etc.) the wheelchair-equipped occupant seat belt before loading onto the wheelchair lift platform. Failure to do so may result in serious bodily injury and/or property dam- age.

The Braun Corporation recom- mends wheelchair passengers position and buckle their wheel- chair-equipped seat belt (torso restraint) as speciﬁed by the manufacture before loading onto a wheelchair lift.

Different types of disabilities require different types of wheel- chairs and different types of wheelchair-equipped occupant restraint belt systems (torso re- straint). It is the responsibility of the wheelchair passenger to have his or her wheelchair equipped with an occupant restraint (seat belt) under the direction of their health care professional.

Wheelchair lift attendants should be instructed on any special needs and/or procedures required for safe transport of wheelchair passengers.

The Braun Corporation recom- mends that the wheelchair lift user and/or attendant review the safety precautions and opera- tion procedures appearing in this manual and on lift-posted decals with your wheelchair lift sales representative, before attempt- ing lift operation. Any questions or concerns can be answered by your sales representative at that time.
