Italian term or phrase: Autoassicurarsi agli ancoraggi predisposti.

Boarding a helicopter. Not sure if this means they have to strap themselves in or just grip the handles. Anyone know more about helicopters than me (not difficult)?

"Se il rotore principale è in movimento, fare attenzione alla testa e ricordarsi, che, quando le pale stanno per fermarsi, si ha un forte abbassamento delle stesse per rimanere nella posizione occupata. ***Autoassicurarsi agli ancoraggi predisposti***. Entrare nella cabina del velivolo in maniera da trovarsi subito in posizione seduta e spostarsi lateralmente e lentamente verso l’interno dell’abitacolo, per rimanere nella posizione occupata".

Firmly grip the hand holds available

Explanation:
pretty verbose as usual. Clearly not about strapping in, since it is talking about getting into the seat. You can't strap in until you are in the seat.
