Figure 6 Storing SCBA connecting buckles
(6) Store SCBA connecting buckles close to the belt under the holders for the SCBA connecting buckles to avoid free
hanging parts.
– Use this procedure also when the back plate is mounted to enhance the wearing comfort by bringing the
backplate closer to the body.
(7) Close the front pouch of the alphaBELT Pro even if a carabiner is connected to this webbing loop.
Fasten the Back Plate on the Restraint Harness
(1) If necessary, remove the original waist belt of the harness from the back plate before installing the belts.
(2) Fasten the belts onto the back plate with the two SCBA connecting buckles.
– SCBA connecting buckles are inserted through the corresponding fastening slots and aligned.
WARNING!
Especially for the alphaBELT Pro the straps of the shoulder harness must run outside of the belt and must not fitted
between any straps and padding. This measure allows a quick dropping or easy demounting of the back plate by
opening the two Ergo-Click buckles on the backside of the alphaBELT Pro.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death.
(3) Adjust the complete harness and the back plate optimally to the user.
