5 ADJUST HARNESS
+ The harness straps should wrap fully around the shoulders with no gaps between
the pack and back.
+ The padded part of the harness straps should end 1-2" / 2.5-5 cm below the
armpit. And the harness should have 1-2" / 2.5-5 cm of webbing remaining.
TORSO LENGTH
+ Locate the harness yoke – this is where the harness straps come together near
the base of the user’s neck. Locate the C7 vertebra – the large protruding bone at
the base of the neck. The yoke should be 1-2” / 2.5-5 cm below
the C7 vertebra.
+ If the torso length is too short or tall, adjust the torso length of the pack.
3 TIGHTEN HARNESS
+ Tighten the shoulder harness straps to tension by pulling them down and back.
4 TIGHTEN LOAD LIFTERS
+ Tighten the load lifters to tension by pulling them up and forward. This will pull
the pack close to body to help stabilize the load.
1 POSITION THE PACK
+ Completely loosen the pack’s hipbelt, harness and load-lifter straps.
+ Load the pack with 10-20 lbs/4-9 kg of gear.
+ Put on the pack and make sure that the hipbelt is centred and rests over the
hipbone. The hipbelt padding should sit halfway above and below the hipbone.
2 BUCKLE HIPBELT
+ Buckle and evenly tighten the hipbelt using Osprey’s cross body ErgoPull.
+ The padding of the hipbelt should wrap around the hips with approximately
1-3" / 2.5-6 cm of webbing between the buckle and the hipbelt when tightened.

backpanel settings to the lower or upper load-lifter ladder lock.
