ADJUSTING THE CHEST STRAP
The chest strap fits across your sternum and keeps the shoulder straps from slipping to the sides,
ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. Before donning the BC, loosen and disconnect the chest strap.
After donning the BC, connect the chest strap and tighten by pulling on the free ends of the straps.
The chest strap should feel comfortable across the chest; it should not be overtightened so that it feels
restrictive. Once the shoulder straps are in position, adjust the shoulder strap length by pulling down
on the D-rings until the BC fits comfortably. Your BC offers a vertical adjustment of the chest strap.
Become familiar with the adjustment of this strap so that you can perform this adjustment in the water
if necessary.
REMOVABLE CHEST STRAP
The chest strap on your BC is removable. To remove the chest strap, unweave the straps from the
male and female parts of the chest buckle. For each strap, pull the free end through the plastic rings
connected to the strap. Pull the strap through the plastic rings that are connected to the BC.
