Description
The belt wraps the torso and a padded leg harness holds it down. Two handles let a caregiver walk beside the child. Handle length adjusts. The lining is soft polyester velvet with an anti-slip treatment so the belt stays in place. The child can use both hands.
Two child sizes
6041 is XXS, measured 60 cm, for a user of 0 to 25 kg. 6042 is XS, 70 cm, for 20 to 35 kg. Both list a safe working load of 50 kg. Support is described as forward, backward and to the side. The page states the belt must not be used to lift.
- It is not one of the slings and it does not attach to a floor lift or a ceiling lift.
- WalkingBelt is part of the SystemRoMedic range made by Direct Healthcare Group.
- Tell us the child's weight so we do not send XXS when the range is the XS belt.
Care
The maker publishes care instructions in a separate multilingual file and prints no wash temperature in the product text. Ask us and we will send that care sheet with your order.
- A home look can start with a free home assessment.
- Aids we sold are checked through service.
- Do not use the handles to hoist. The maker forbids lifting with this belt.
