Inspection of Top Strap:
The Top Stabilizing Strap must be inspected when first received and prior to each use. The entire strap assembly must be
inspected whenever there is suspicion of physical damage, such as, but not limited to cuts, abrasions, excessive stress, contact
with acids, solvents or other chemicals.
Inspect the cam buckle, snaps and D-rings to ensure they are working properly. Check for cracks or breaks in the metal and ensure
springs are working freely.
Through inspection, if any defects are found, the Top Strap must not be used and replaced immediately. The defective strap should
be cut in half to prevent accidental reuse and disposed of in accordance with local procedures.
Inspect the bag and straps for cuts, holes or loose stitching and the buckles for any broken parts
