4 TIGHTEN HARNESS
+ Tighten the shoulder harness straps to tension by pulling them down and back.
5 TIGHTEN LOAD LIFTERS
+ Tighten the load lifters to tension by pulling them up and forward. This will pull
the pack close to the body to help stabilize the load.
6 ADJUST HARNESS HARNESS
+
The harness straps should wrap fully around the shoulders with no gaps between
the pack and back.
+ The padded part of the harness straps should end 1-2" / 2.5-5 cm
below the armpit. And the harness should have 1-2" / 2.5-5 cm of
webbing remaining.
TORSO LENGTH
+ Locate the harness yoke – this is where the harness straps come together near
the base of the user’s neck. Locate the C7 vertebra – the large protruding bone
at the base of the neck. The yoke should be 1-2” / 2.5-5 cm below
the C7 vertebra.
+ If the torso length is too short or tall, adjust the torso length of the pack.
(See Adjustable Harness instructions in this manual.)
7 STERNUM STRAP
Adjust the sternum strap to approximately 2"/5 cm below the collarbone,
buckle and tighten to tension.
1 POSITION THE PACK
+ Completely loosen the pack’s hipbelt, harness and load-lifter straps.
+ Load the pack with 10-20 lbs/4-9 kg of gear.
+ Put on the pack and make sure that the hipbelt is centred and rests over the
hipbone. The hipbelt padding should sit halfway above and below the hipbone.
2 BUCKLE HIPBELT

+ The padding of the hipbelt should wrap around the hips with approximately
1-3" / 2.5-6cm of webbing between the buckle and the hipbelt when tightened
