Adjusting the helmet
Placement
To check the shell size of your helmet, put it on your head in the correct position but not
fasten the buckle (Fig 1). A good fit is snug, but not tight. Note: all directions (left, right, top,
bottom) are in reference to the helmet as worn on the head.
Step 1
Place the helmet on the head correctly.
(Fig 1) When the helmet is placed incorrect
on the head it cannot guarantee safety.
(Fig 2)
Step 2
Turn the automatic dial fit system till
the helmet is tight enough, but still
comfortable. (Fig 3)
Step 3
Adjust the left strap by clicking the strap
adjustor open and slide until it is just
beneath the right earlob. (Fig 4)
Step 4
With the helmet off, slide the left strap
adjustor on the nape strap until the left
nape strap is the same length as the right
nape strap. Check if the space between
the left and right nape straps are equal
and both adjustors are just below the ear
lobes when positioned on the head. If
necessary, re-adjust the straps. (Fig 5)
Step 5
The ‘chinstrap’ are the two straps hanging
under the lower jaw. You can adjust
the length of the chinstrap by sliding it
through the buckle (Fig 6). The chinstrap
should fit snugly against the bottom of the
chin. If necessary, you should be able to
measure this by placing a finger between
the chin and the strap, which indicates the
right amount of space.
Step 6
Insert the left-hand buckle into the right-
hand buckle. Make sure the buckle is
correctly secured by listening for a click as
the buckle engages. (Fig 7) Give a gentle
tug to attempt to pull the buckle apart with
the chinstrap. It should not come apart.
To keep the excess of the chinstrap from
flapping, tuck it through the rubber O-ring.
To undo the buckle again, press on both
of the recessed tabs of the buckle to open
it. (Fig 8)
Testing
To test the adjustments before using, shake the head gently from left to the right side. The
helmet should not move on the head. Also try to push the helmet forward and backward
on the head. If the helmet moves back, tighten the temple straps. If the helmet moves
forward, tighten the nape straps. If the helmet cannot be adjusted correctly, you may
need a smaller shell size.
