MORPHO MORPHOALP ULTRA LIGHT User Instruction Sheet

1. Untighten ankle strap (by loosening completely the Buckle
strap from the buckle of the strap) as well as the toe strap so as
to insert your boots and to adjust the heel thrust of articulated
binding plate to your boot size. See Fig.3
2. Place the toe of your boot against the front part of the
articulated binding plate, inside the toe strap, making sure the
webbing of the forefront strap is above your boot.
3. Adjust the heel thrust to the proper size of your boot using the
Morpholock system. See Fig.2:
3a-raise the size adjust lever with the help of logo rubber tab
puller and move the heel thrust on the binding to the proper
size of your boot: the heel of your boot must touch the back of
the heel thrust for perfect maintaining of the boot while
snowshoeing
3b-when size is correctly adjusted release the rubber tab:
the heel thrust is then locked in the binding slots thanks to the
teeth of the size adjust lever.
4. Your boot is then well adjusted lengthwise: start tightening
the toe strap firmly by pulling the printed webbing after
insertion in the two holes quick buckle. Due to the flexible
material of the binding front lateral parts your boot perfectly
fits the binding.
5. Insert the loosened strap (step1) inside the two holes of the
buckle of the ankle strap around your boot then tighten the
ankle strap by pulling the strap until you feel firmly
tightened.
6. Snowshoeing: keep articulated binding plate free from
snowshoe base when going flat, traverse, uphill or downhill: the
RTS unlocked from base locker/step in all cases. The
articulated binding must lay flat on the snowshoe base or
stepping on the extra high metallic climbing step when
climbing steep slopes: for this purpose rotate the climbing step
forward in its upwards position (fig.3) from its idle position
(fig.2) with your gloves.
7. After use, untighten ankle strap first: pull up the buckle of
the strap and pull out the ankle strap from the buckle. Then
untighten the toe strap: pull up the end of the quick buckle and
loosen the webbing. See fig 3. Remove your boot. To store the
snowshoe push the articulated binding on the base and lock it to
the base by rotating the RTS so as to insert it into the base
locker/step. See fig.2
8. ALWAYS rinse snowshoes with water and brush to remove
mud and debris after every use.

.MORPHO® snowshoes don't have a right or left
snowshoe. MORPHO recommends to wear the
snowshoes so that the ankle ratchet buckle and toe strap
buckles are on the outside of the foot so as to tighten
ankle and toe straps in the easiest way.
.Kneeling on one knee and wearing the other foot
snowshoe is the best position to be when putting on the
snowshoes. This gives you the best grip and leverage
for inserting and tightening the straps.
.Ankle and toe straps must firmly tightened around
your boot
.When rotating backward metallic climbing step to its
idle position make sure to fully push it down until it is
blocked by the snowshoe base rear hook. (fig.2)
.Do not snowshoe on rock or concrete, this causes
excess wear: take off snowshoes until you are back on
snow.
