Helmet Tether / In Car Adjustment
The Helmet Tethers need to be adjusted with the driver seated and buckled into the vehicle.
Loosen the helmet tether strap screws on the backside of the restraint before entering car.
Restraint Tethers:
Note: Getting in and out of the car with your back perpendicular with the roof bars will aid in quicker
exits from the car while wearing the R3 Head and Neck Restraint. The device will move with your
body movement for more control of the device when exiting vehicle.
1) Get into car and buckle into the seat.
2) With the helmet strapped securely, pull the yellow Quick Release tethers to open the Quick Re-
lease on the restraint.
3) Attach the Quick Release to the Helmet Hook from the outside in, making sure to have the tether
ring pointing down.
4) With help, from a relaxed normal position, adjust the tethers to allow up to 1.5” maximum
movement forward (+/- .5”) before restraint is felt. This should allow 40–50 degrees of side to
side movement.
Quick Release Tether
Placement
The Quick Release Tethers should be
Velcro’d to the chin bar of the helmet.
NEVER attach the tethers to the
seat belts or the car.
