5. While your buddy continues to hold the cylinder, connect the waistband and waist buckle. Pull forward
on the D-rings to tighten the waistband. The weight of the cylinder should rest on the lumbar region
(lower part) of your back.
6. Connect the chest strap buckle. Pull on the free end of the strap to tighten. The chest strap should
feel comfortable across the chest, it should not be overtightened so that it feels restrictive.
7. After your buddy has released the cylinder and the BC feels comfortably supported on your hips and
shoulders, bend forward at the waist and adjust the torso straps to a comfortable length by pulling
on the torso strap D-rings (if equipped).
8. If necessary, readjust the waistband and waist buckle so that they are comfortably snug, but not
restricting.
NOTE: Adjusting the shoulder straps too tightly will transfer the cylinder weight from the hips
to the shoulders, restricting your arm movement and decreasing comfort.
NOTE: If the webbing has been removed from the webslides, pull the waistband D-rings to
the side until snug.
