1. Untighten ankle strap (by loosening completely the notch
strap from the buckle of the strap) as well as the 2 toe straps
so as to insert your boots and to adjust the heel thrust of
articulated binding plate to your boot size. See Fig.3
2. Place the toe of your boot against the front part of the
articulated binding plate, inside the 2 toe straps, making sure
the two webbings of the forefront strap are above your boot.
3. Adjust the heel thrust to the proper size of your boot using
the Morpholock system. See Fig.2:
3a-raise the size adjust lever with the help of logo rubber
tab puller and move the heel thrust on the binding to the
roper size of your boot: the heel of your boot must touch the
back of the heel thrust for perfect maintaining of the boot
while snowshoeing
3b-when size is correctly adjusted release the rubber tab:
the heel thrust is then locked in the binding slots thanks to the
teeth of the size adjust lever.
4. Your boot is then well adjusted lengthwise: start ti
htenin
the 2 toe straps firmly by pulling the printed webbings after
insertion in the two holes quick buckles. Due to the flexible
material of the binding front lateral parts your boot perfectly
fits the binding.
5. Insert the loosened notch strap (step1) inside the ratchet
buckle of the ankle strap around your boot then tighten
micrometrically the ankle strap by moving back and forth
the lever of ratchet buckle until you feel firmly tightened.
6. Snowshoeing: keep articulated binding plate free from
snowshoe base when going flat, traverse, uphill or downhill:
the RTS unlocked from base locker/step in all cases. The
articulated binding must lay flat on the snowshoe base or
stepping on the extra high metallic climbing step when
climbing steep slopes: for this purpose rotate the climbing
step forward in its upwards position (fig.3) from its idle
osition (fig.2) with your gloves.
7. After use, untighten ankle strap first: push on the release
lever of the ratchet buckle and pull out the ankle strap from
the notch strap while keeping pressure on the buckle push
release lever. Then untighten the 2 toe straps: pull up the
ends of the quick buckles and loosen the webbings. See fig 3.
Remove your boot. To store the snowshoe push the
articulated binding on the base and lock it to the base by
rotating the RTS so as to insert it into the base
locker/step. See fig.2
8.ALWAYS rinse snowshoes with water and brush to
remove mud and debris after every use.

.MORPHO® snowshoes don’t have a right or left
snowshoe. MORPHO recommends to wear the
snowshoes so thatthe ankle ratchet buckle and toe strap
buckles are on the outside of the foot so as to tighten
ankle and toe straps in the easiest way.
.Kneeling on one knee and wearing the other foot
snowshoe is the best position to be when putting on the
snowshoes. This gives you the best grip and leverage
for inserting and tightening the straps.
.Ankle and toe straps must firmly tightened around
your boot
.When rotating backward metallic climbing step to its
idle position make sure to fully push it down until it is
blocked by the 2 snowshoe base rear hooks. (fig.2)
.Do not snowshoe on rock or concrete, this causes
excess wear: take off snowshoes until you are back on
snow.
