7. Slowly remove the pull-up cord to
prevent excess friction from damaging the
closing loop. It is best to pass the pull-up
cord under the closing pin while extracting
it. Doing so places the primary friction point
between the pull-up cord and the closing
pin, thereby reducing wear on the closing
loop.
note
Note that the
grommets do not
line up - see picture.
It may be necessary to adjust the length of
the closing loop to make the flaps align
properly. The curved pin should be held
firmly in place, but a force of no more than
12 pounds should extract it and open the
container. The standard length for the closing
loop is 1 5/8 inch, (4.1 cm) ± 1/8 inch ( ± 3
mm).
8. Double check the yellow hook and loop
fastener patches to be sure they are mated
properly. If there is not enough slack in the
bridle to allow proper mating of the hook and
loop fastener, create a small amount by
gently pulling the bridle out of the main
container.
9. Tuck the excess bridle under the bottom
edge of the #2 right side flap.
Ensure the bridle extends from the locking pin to the pilot chute without passing through the harness. Mate the loop
fastener on the bridle to the hook fastener on the bottom flap; you’ll have to tuck the bridle under the #2 right side flap
to do this. Close the main pin cover flap and be sure it completely covers the pin and bridle.
