Home and Away Harness: Unwin

New 2012 video about the popular Home and Away Harness from Unwin, the leading maker of wheelchair safety systems. Below is a transcript of the instructions given in this training video.

The Home and Away harness is designed to provide additional support to seated passengers.

This equipment consists of a seat anchorage system that remains with the vehicle, and, a harness that fits to the passenger prior to travelling.

Before fitting the harness, ensure that the anchorage straps on the seat back are fitted with all their quick release buckles at the rear of the seat's back.

Place the harness over the shoulders of the passenger with the yellow band at the front. Fasten the two Velcro straps securely.

Position the passenger onto the seat and attach the two shoulder straps into the buckles on the seat's back.

Attach the two waist strap belts to the lower side buckles, ensuring that the right one is passed under the vehicle seat belt.

Attach the centre crotch strap to the rear centre buckle.

Adjust to fit and ensure that the waist strap is low enough to give complete control and support.

Fasten the vehicle seat belt around the passenger.

To remove the harness, undo the vehicle seatbelt.

Unfasten the centre crotch strap and the waist strap.

Undo the two shoulder straps.

As the passenger stands up, unfasten the Velcro straps, remove the and harness and store safely.
