*To make assembly easier, it is recommended to re-attach the suspension
bridge first, weave the suspension web adjustment straps (D) through all
the correct loops and retainers, and then reconnect the leg pads to the
saddle (using the elastic leg pad straps and the leg pad straps after the
correct orientation is met, with the padding of the leg straps facing up and
the male end of the buckles at the bottom. Note that the saddle is sitting
upright to obtain correct orientation (Fig. 34)).*
WEARING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Make sure that the waist strap and leg straps are unbuckled.
2.
Step into the belt, pulling it up around the waist.
3.
Fasten and adjust the waist belt strap buckle until the work positioning D-rings are positioned slightly forward
of the hip bones and the belt is snug, but comfortable. Use the elastic Keeper
to contain any excess strap.
4.
Wrap the leg straps around the legs so that padded portion is behind the
leg and the buckles in the desired position towards the outside of your leg.
5.
Connect the quick connect buckles as shown in figure 35.
6.
Adjust the leg pad elastic strap as necessary.
7.
Adjust the leg straps until they are snug, but comfortable. Contain the
excess strap with the elastic Keepers.
ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Once the saddle has been properly fitted, you can adjust the suspension strap for the perfect feel.
A
djustment of the suspension strap will change your center of gravity. Tightening the suspension straps
will move your center of gravity forward and loosening them will move it backwards.
Adjustment of the elastic leg pad support straps ensures that the leg strap section will be in the most
comfortable position on your legs.
