SINGLE OPERATION SYSTEM HANDLE (S.O.S.)
The
Telesis 2
S.O.S. (Single Operating System) utilizes one handle and one
operation for both the breakaway and reserve ripcord pin pull. A yellow
loop style handle is placed below the three ring on the wearers left hand
side. Peeling outward and then pulling downward will cause a staged,
breakaway then reserve pin extraction. The RSL operates normally with
this system as it does the normal two handle system.
The risers for the S.O.S. system are unique. The excess cable keeper is
located closer to the grommet which the 3-Ring™ loop passes through.
Be sure you use the correct risers.
SOS Handle Installation:
Step 1
Insert ripcord cable into housing. Pull excess cable down between
flaps. Turn the yellow handle Velcro side up and place stainless steel
grommet on left hand loop of the ripcord cable. (

Step 2
Rotate the handle counterclockwise (left) allowing the unstiffened
fabric to turn the corner and fold down behind the handle and left hand
flap. Mate Velcro between the handle and the left-hand flap. (

Step 3
Route the breakaway cables in their appropriate housings and mate
the right side handle Velcro to the flap. (
