Lay the Leopard fl at with the inside facing down and remove the STEP
assembly from the front pocket.
Remove the plates from the back pocket and the side
pouches by lifting the Velcro tabs.
Note: When you remove the plates from their pockets, note
that the “Top Outside” text faces away from the body. If the
text is not visible, mark the plate in some way so that you know
the original orientation. A silver permanent marker works well
for this purpose. Replacing the plastic plates incorrectly will
cause the brace to fi t improperly.
In the event you have forgotten to mark the plates, here are
some tips:
•
The front plastic plate is convex to fi t a stomach shape.
•
The back plastic plate is widest at the base.
•
Match the contours of the plastic plates with the shape
of that part of your body.
