HELMET PREPARATION
CHECKING SUSPENSION (PAD/LINER) FIT — ADJUSTABLE
PLACE THE HELMET ON THE HEAD.
Leave the chin strap loose for now. Allow the helmet to settle on the head for a few minutes.
CHECK THE HELMET HEIGHT.
The front pads should be just above the
eyebrows. If the helmet is too high, have
the wearer remove the helmet. Adjust the
height as follows:
• Remove the two crown pads, noting
their position inside the helmet.
• Remove one or both ¼-inch-thick foam
pads from each pad cover.
• Reinstall both crown pads ( with at
least the ½-inch-thick foam pad
inside each one
) in the helmet in the
same positions from which they were
removed.
Ensure that the opening
in each crown pad cover faces the
hook fasteners inside the helmet.
• If the wearer uses a headset, space
the crown pads to accommodate the
headband of the headset.
• Have the wearer don the helmet.
Recheck the helmet height.
Ensure that the helmet is properly adjusted for a snug, secure fit at all times when the helmet
is worn. Failure to do so can result in an unstable helmet that will not protect the wearer.
Each pad contains one ½-inch-thick foam pad and two ¼-inch-thick foam pads inside
the cover. For impact protection and helmet stability, you must keep all ½-inch-thick
foam pads inside the covers and all pads properly installed in the helmet when the
helmet is worn. Remove the ¼-inch-thick pads only where necessary to adjust the fit.
