Attaching the speedbar
Attaching the speedbar
4
The SNUG has an elasticated speedbar retainer, which automatically keeps the bar tidied away against the base
of the harness when not in use, with no fiddly Velcro strap to attach and reattach. Hidden underneath the seat is a
pulley system on the elastic, that ensures the bar can be pushed easily to its full extension, and when the pressure
is released, it springs back into place against the harness base. There is a plastic adjuster (A, on the photo below) to
enable the pilot to set the bar’s stowed position a little bit away from the harness base if preferred, as some pilots
find this makes it easier to catch the speedbar with the foot when it is needed.
When you first receive your harness, you need to attach the speedbar, which is done as follows:
Thread the line through the pulley (1), then through the pastic tubing above the reserve handle (2). It then passes
through the metal loop (3) before being tied securely to the speedbar, (4).
