PACK FIT INSTRUCTIONS

AETHER | ARIEL PLUS
1
POSITION THE PACK
Completely loosen the pack's hipbelt, harness and load-lifter straps. Load the pack with 10-20 lbs./ 4-9 kg. of gear.
Put the pack on and make sure the hipbelt is centered and rests over the hipbone. The hipbelt padding should sit halfway above/
below the hipbone.
2
BUCKLE HIPBELT
Buckle and tighten the hipbelt evenly using Osprey's cross-body ErgoPull.
The padding of the hipbelt should wrap around the hips with approximately 1-3 in./2.5-6 cm. of webbing between the buckle and
the hipbelt when tightened.
3 HIPBELT ADJUSTMENT
If the hipbelt is too large and "tops out" or does not offer the preferred amount of coverage, the customer may need a different
pack size, model or adjustment (Fit-On-The-Fly hipbelt imaged).
4
TIGHTEN SHOULDER STRAP
Tighten the shoulder harness straps by pulling them down and back.
5
TIGHTEN LOAD LIFTERS
Tightening the load lifters will pull the pack close to the body and help stabilize the load.
If the torso length on the pack is adjusted correctly, the load lifters will sit between a 30 to 60-degree angle and align naturally
with the shoulder straps.
