Adjusting the belt length

the knee pad to shorten or lengthen the belt (see

INFORMATION: The position of the belt knobs
for the knee pad cannot be changed.

WARNING! The knee pad should lie flat on the
lower legs below the knee caps. The legs must
be supported on the foot support. The knee pad
must press the calves firmly against the leg
pad, but not too tightly so the user is not

(see fig. 13, item 1).

legs.

belt knobs (see fig. 13, item 2).
4) Tighten the belt with the belt tensioner (see fig. 13,
item 1). Ensure that the belt tensioner snaps into
place audibly.
5) Pull to check that it is secure.
Opening the knee pad
1) Open the belt tensioner on the knee pad.
2) Disengage the knee pad belt from the two belt
knobs.
