(E). Then through one slot of the smaller male Quick Connect Waist Buckle (F). Make

Once the Quick Connect Waist Buckles (E & F) are properly threaded insert the
waist strap back through the elastic keeper and then through the permanently
attached larger half of the Waist Adjustment Buckle.

Note:

Be sure curves of Waist Adjustment Buckles both slope down when

threading webbing through them.
