Page 2: The System
Common techniques used to pack other 2-pin container systems, which use a floor-plate closing method for the top pin, will work for the CRUX 2 3R as well. Please keep these points in mind: If using the floor plate for the top loop, then we recommend placing your pull-up cord through the top closing loop before placing your canopy in the container (easier to access once the parachute is covering the loop). - Page 3 When your CRUX 2 3R is closed, the main pin cover flap should be cleanly seated. Check your placement of the packjob volume. It should be dispersed evenly from corner to corner and match the shape of the container.

Page 4: Container Closure
CONTAINER CLOSURE Always double check pin tension, orientation, and closure. There are many ways to pack a container incorrectly. There is one best practice for packing and closing this container. The bridle should be routed between the grommets, to the top loop, then the bottom. -
Page 6: 3-Ring Risers
The CRUX 2 3-ring risers are the result of laboratory load testing and field testing by our R&D team and Squirrel team jumpers. Note that the CRUX 2 3-ring risers are “reverse”. When assembled, the rings will be facing the jumper. - Page 7 Cable Configurations Single-Cable Configuration: There should be 5.5 in. (14 cm) of excess cable extending past the cable housing grommet. Thread the yellow cutaway cable from the main cable housing through the white loop. It should then pass into the correct channel on the riser. NOTE THAT THERE ARE TWO CHANNELS.

Page 8: Inspection
Your 3-ring risers must match the correct illustrations, exactly. If your riser assembly does not match the illustrations, it will not function correctly. If you need assistance, contact Squirrel before use or enlist the help of a rigger who is experienced with this specific CRUX 2 3-ring system. -
Page 9: Maintenance
LIGHT BUCKLES The CRUX 2 3R features aluminum plate buckles. Be sure to assemble them correctly, and inspect them before every jump. Webbing must pass around the middle bar of the small buckle. The entire small buckle then passes through the hole in the larger buckle. -
Page 10: Slider Retention
The front riser loop has a type 3 webbing anchor inside which can be used with the retention lines included with your CRUX 2 3R to secure the slider as shown: Insert the retention line into the top hole of webbing anchor with the blue line. -
