Installation Instructions

The belts are supplied in a condition “ready to be installed“.

For installing the belts pay attention to the marking on the lap belt and shoulder harness:

  • “L” – left side
  • “R” – right side

Relating to the seating position in flight direction the “R”–marked belt has to be installed on the right side, the “L”–marked belt has to be installed on the left side of the seat occupant.

The black tap/plate of the rotary buckle must be in the upper position.

Belts with sewn–in end–fittings must be mounted by fixing the end–fittings (see markings on the picture below) either to the seat or airframe, belts without end–fittings (loops / open endings) must be looped either to the seat, airframe or in an end-fittings mounted to the seat or airframe.

Operation

All parts of the belts come together at a common attachment point (Rotary Buckle).

The rotary buckle is an all metal or plastic sheathed metal device consisting of housing with 5 slotted sockets to accommodate connectors of two lap belt straps (1 + 2), two shoulder harness straps (3 + 4) and one crotch strap (5). Regularly the right hand lap belt strap (1) is fixed to the buckle.

Clockwise or counterclockwise rotation of the rotary buckle cover (B) releases all but one belt at the same time. The shoulder harness can be separately released by pushing forward on the black tab / plate (A) located on top of the rotary buckle. The lap belt (and if used the crotch strap) remains fastened with the buckle.

WARNING: It is important not to interchange the lap belt straps (1 or 2) with the shoulder harness straps (3 + 4).

! USE THE CORRECT POSITIONS WHILE ASSEMBLING !

Because of different dimensions the lap belt connectors (1 + 2) will not connect safely in the shoulder harness socket and conversely. A safe use is not ensured.
