Initial Restraint Adjustment during Installation
While first installing your racing harness the following items may require
minor adjustments to the belts.
• Shoulder belt tilt lock adjusters must be positioned 250 mm (10”)
below the collar bone or even lower.
• If a HANS ® is worn, the adjuster must be positioned 70 mm on the yoke
end of the HANS ® .
• For a HANS specific double-shoulder belt system, the adjuster has to
be positioned so the merge between the “HANS-belt” and the “body-
belt” must be located at a certain distance below the HANS ® yoke
tips. For more details see instructions in section “Wearing your Racing
Harness safe”
• Lap belt tilt lock adjusters must not be positioned within the openings
of the bucket seats. Adjusters must be either outside of the seat at a
minimum distance of 40 mm (1.5”) from the opening or close to the
rotary buckle inside the seat.
• Anti-sub strap tilt lock adjusters are recommended to be positioned
either in the opening of the seat pan or right above. This position will
allow adjustment without interfering in an uncomfortable manner with
your upper thighs.
Roll cage bars used to mount the shoulder belts must be
homologated by the roll cage manufacturer for such use.
Each shoulder and lap belt anchor point must withstand a minimum
load of 14,7 kN (3.240 lbs). Each anti-submarining anchor point must
withstand a minimum load of 7,2 kN (1.650 lbs).
Any drilled hole for racing harness attachment must be strengthened
by a reinforcement plate meeting FIA specification (see “Accessories
and Spare Parts”)
SCHROTH recommends, whenever possible and suitable, the use of
existing factory provided anchor points for the lap- and shoulder
belts.
