before installing. Set the Baseplate (pictured

of the screw. Align the Post and M6 Screw
through the Baseplate and carefully tighten the
M6 Screw into the helmet without
cross-threading during installation. Tighten
snuggly and allow thread lock-tite to dry.
If your helmet does not have M6 Inserts in the
helmet, Zamp carries an accessory Backplate
(part #NZBP0016). To install, slide the backplate
between the Shell and EPS/Dense Foam upper
liner, carefully positioning it center of the hole.
Once the Backplate is positioned correctly,
follow the instructions above to install the

Step 1 - Adjust strapping:
It is recommended that you evaluate the video on
www.z-techsports.com in regards to adjustment of
tethers and strapping. You will want to make sure the
strapping stays in the same configuration throughout
the hardware as you receive it from the mfg. There is
only one point on each side of the Series 8A which you
will want to adjust as shown in diag (1a) and (1b). The
following measurement is the standard starting point,
you will want to adjust this measurement so the
clips engage with the straps 1.75-2” from your
natural driving position.
