Komfort® Latch System - Mack Granite GU Series Operator's Handbook Manual

Webbing — The webbing should show no signs of wear, fraying or holes, and
it should be reasonably free of dirt which could find its way into the retracting
mechanism.
Retractors — The retractors should function smoothly and maintain
an appropriate amount of tension. Loose webbing is an indicator that
maintenance is needed; it's likely that a too-loose belt will fail to tighten
properly when necessary.
Seat Belt Mounting Components — The tethering should be free of wear
and debris; the webbing should show no signs of wear, fraying or holes; and
the metal components should be free of signs of damage, corrosion or rust.
DANGER
Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after an accident if they have been
subjected to loading by occupants (even if no damage is obvious), or if they have
been damaged by an accident (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.). If there is any
question regarding belt or retractor condition, replace the appropriate part.
Komfort® Latch System
Seat Belt Assembly
The Track III three-point seat belts installed in this chassis are designed to
provide the highest degree of operator safety, comfort and convenience.
Additional comfort is provided by the Komfort Latch mechanism, which is
incorporated into the seat belt assembly, and may be used to relieve any
discomfort caused by the constant pressure of engaged seat belts.
Seat Belt Operation
To buckle the seat belt, grasp the latch portion of the buckle, bring it across
your lap (from outboard to inboard) and insert it into the fixed buckle which is
mounted to the floor or seat (depending on seat type). With the belt properly
latched, the pelvic and upper torso restraints will be in place and automatically
adjusted to provide a snug fit.
Komfort Latch Feature
If the constant tension of the buckled seat belt causes any discomfort, engage
the Komfort Latch as follows:
