ADJUSTING SHOULDER STRAP LENGTH - NUT AND BOLT SYSTEM

Each of the BC shoulder straps are connected to the harness with two stainless steel nut and bolt

combinations. There are two positions that allow you to lengthen or shorten the shoulder straps, with

the outer grommets being the longest setting. If necessary, the shoulder can easily be remounted

onto one of two grommet attachment points by performing the following procedure:

1. Disconnect the chest strap buckle and shoulder

strap buckles.

2. Slide back the shoulder retainer sleeve until the

hook and loop strap is exposed.

3. Separate the hook and loop cover to expose the

nut and bolt system.

Remove the bolts which fasten

the shoulder strap to the harness by holding the nut

with a 3/8” box end wrench and unscrew the bolt with

a medium sized Phillips screwdriver.

4. Align the grommet holes in the shoulder strap with

the holes in the harness. Insert the bolt through the

front of the harness, through the shoulder strap and

thread the nut onto the bolt from behind the shoulder

strap. Hold the nut with a 3/8” box wrench and tighten

the bolt with a medium size Phillips screwdriver.

6. Don the BC over your exposure suit to check the fit.

5. Secure hoop and loop cover. Slide the shoulder

retainer sleeve back in place and connect shoulder

strap buckle.
