To adjust the red and white straps on the Leckey MyWay:

1. Connect the white clips on the harness connection point straps to the white buckles on the harness (both sides).
2. Connect the red clips on the harness connection point straps to the red buckles on the harness (both sides).
3. Once all four straps and buckles are connected, pull the pulley straps to adjust the user’s position, bringing them closer to the frame if needed.
4. Ensure the harness connection point straps are taut. If they feel slack, pull the pulley straps further to tighten.

Warning: Ensure all four straps and buckles on the upper support unit and harness are properly connected.
