TRAILOGIC™ COLLECTION

The PK50 has several unique features that will help make packing (and unpacking) easier,
ultimately making your experience on the trail more enjoyable.
(1) Front Pocket: The detachable front pocket has a large lower compartment and a smaller
top compartment. The large compartment is designed to hold all your clothing while the
smaller top compartment provides quick access to essential gear (headlamp, first aid kit,
keys, etc.). When attached to the main pack, this front pocket allows your lightest gear to
be furthest away from your body for optimal comfort.
(2) For quick access to the top compartment of the front pocket, just unclip the two buckles
attaching it to the top of main pack, flip over, and un-roll.
(3) Main Packbag: The main pack has two main compartments and several other pockets.
(4) The top compartment in the main packbag is for all of your cooking and eating gear, water,
and all of your heavier equipment.
(5) The lower compartment in the main packbag is designed to hold your sleeping bag.
(6) The large stretch mesh pocket on the front of the packbag is ideal for storing your tent. It
provides quick access once you get to camp so you can set up your tent to provide shelter
before exposing your other gear.
(7) The compression wings, located on both sides of the main packbag, contain a small volume
compartment, ideal for tent poles or trekking poles when not in use.
(8) Rain Cover: There is a detachable rain cover that can be found in a pocket underneath the
main packbag.

Brush off loose dirt with a dry rag or brush.
As necessary, wipe off mud and dirt with a damp sponge.
As needed, wipe out the inside with a damp sponge and mild non-detergent soap.
DO NOT soak in soapy water as this may damage coated fabrics.
Rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue.
DO NOT use a dryer. Air-dry only.
Always store in a cool, dry area. Mildew will damage fabrics.
DO NOT leave (store) your pack in direct sunlight. UV light will weaken and fade
materials.
Loosen all load-lifter and belt-stabilizer straps, loosen the shoulder straps and hip belt.
Place 15-20 pounds into the pack.
Put the pack on and buckle the hip belt. The pads should rest on top of your hip bones
and tighten across your belly button. Pull in your belly and tighten the belt more than
you would normally wear it.
Shrug your shoulders and adjust the shoulder straps by pulling down and back on
the webbing below each arm until the lumbar and scapula pads rest on your hips and
shoulder blades respectively.
Tension the load-lifter straps, located on the top of the shoulder straps, by
pulling forward.
Position the sternum strap approximately 2 inches below your collarbone. Buckle the
sternum strap and tighten to where it feels comfortable across your chest.
Tighten the hip belt stabilizers on each side and adjust the hip belt to where it’s snug
but not too tight.
Ideally, your pack weight will rest more on your hips than on your shoulders. You can
make micro-adjustments while hiking to vary the position on your hips and shoulders
for all-day comfort.
