Transportation

A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the equivalent

level of safety and security of a vehicle seating system. It is always

recommended that the user transfers to the vehicle seating. It is

recognised that this is not always practical for the user to be trans-

ferred and in these circumstances where the user must be trans-

ported whilst in the wheelchair the following advice should be follo-

wed.

1. Confirm that the vehicle is suitably equipped to transport a pas-

senger in a wheelchair, and ensure the method of access/egress

is suitable for your wheelchair type. The vehicle should have the

floor strength to take the combined weight of the user, the wheel

chair and accessories.

2. Sufficient space should be available around the wheelchair to

enable clear access to attach, tighten and release the wheelchair

and occupant tie down restraints and safety belts.

3. The occupied wheelchair must be located in a forward facing

position and secured by the wheelchair tie down and occupant

restraint straps (WTORS tie downs) meeting the requirements of

ISO 10542 or SAE J2249, in accordance with the WTORS manu-

facturers’ instructions.

4. The wheelchair’s use in other positions within a vehicle has not

been tested e.g. transportation in a side facing position must not

be carried out under any circumstances. (Fig19)

Warning There is a risk of serious injury or death if this if this

advice is ignored.

5. The wheelchair should be secured by a Tie Down Restraint

system, conforming to ISO 10542 or SAE J2249 with non-adju-

stable front straps and adjustable rear straps, which typically use

Karabiner clips/S hooks and tongue and buckle fittings. These

restraints generally comprise of 4 individual straps that are atta-

ched to each corner of the wheelchair.

6. The tie-down restraints should be fitted to the main frame of the

wheelchair as indicated in the diagram on the following page,

and not to any attachments or accessories, e.g. not around the

spokes of wheels, brakes or footrests.

7. The tie–down restraints should be attached as close as possible

at an angle of 45 degrees and tightened securely in accordance

with the manufacturer's instructions.

8. Alterations or substitutions must not be made to the wheelchair

securement points or to structural

and frame or components without

consulting the manufacturer. Failu-

re to do so will invalidate the abili-

ty of a Sunrise Medical wheelchair

to be transported within a vehicle.

9. Both pelvic and upper torso

restraint belts must be used to

restrain the occupant to reduce

the possibility of head and chest

impacts with the vehicle compo-

nents and serious risk of injury to

the user and other vehicle occu-

pants. (Fig 20) The upper torso

restraint belt should be mounted

to the vehicle “B” pillar - failure to

do so will increase the risk of

serious abdominal injuries to the

user.

10. A head restraint suitable for transportation (see label on hea-

drest) must be fitted and suitably positioned at all times during

transportation.

11. Postural supports (lap straps, lap belts) should not be used or

relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle unless they

are labelled as meeting the requirements specified in ISO 7176-

19:2001 or SAE J2249.

12. The safety of the user during transportation depends upon the

diligence of the person securing the tie-down restraints and

they should have received appropriate instructions and/or trai-

ning in their use.

13. Wherever possible remove and stow safely away from the

wheelchair all auxiliary equipment, for example:

Crutches

Loose cushions

Tray Tables

14. Articulating/elevating leg rest should not be used in the eleva-

ted position when the wheelchair and user are being transpor-

ted and the wheelchair is restrained using Wheelchair Transport

and Occupant Restraints.

15. Reclining backrests should be returned to an upright position.

16. The manual brakes must be firmly applied.

Occupant Retraints Instruction

1. The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the front of the

pelvis so that the angle of the pelvic belt is within the preferred

zone of 30 to 75 degrees to the horizontal.

A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable

i.e. closer to, but never exceeding 75degrees. (Fig 21)

2. The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and

across the chest as illustrated Fig 22 and Fig 23.

Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible consistent

with user comfort.

Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use.

The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and

across the shoulder as illustrated in Fig 22 and Fig 23.

Restraints should be mounted to the vehicle “B” pillar and

should not be held away from the body by wheelchair compo-

nents such as armrest or wheels.
