Opsætning og førstegangsbrug

1. Størrelser og pasform

Selecting the correct helmet size is critical for safety and comfort. Use the sizing chart below to determine your appropriate size. Measure your head circumference at the largest point, approximately one inch above your eyebrows.

Billedbeskrivelse: A detailed sizing chart for AFX helmets, displaying adult and youth sizes. Adult sizes range from X-Small to XXXX-Large, with corresponding head circumferences in centimeters and inches, along with hat sizes. Youth sizes include Y-Small, Y-Medium, and Y-Large, also with corresponding measurements.

Once you have determined your size, try on the helmet. It should feel snug around your head and cheeks without causing painful pressure points. To check the fit, fasten the chin strap and try to move the helmet from side to side and up and down. If the helmet slides easily or rotates significantly, it is too large. Your skin should move with the helmet.

2. Retention System (Double D-ring)

The FX-200 helmet features a Double D-ring retention system for secure fastening. Follow these steps to properly secure your helmet:

1. Før enden af ​​hageremmen gennem begge D-ringe.
2. Før stroppen tilbage gennem kun den første D-ring.
3. Pull the strap tightly until it is snug against your throat, ensuring the helmet cannot be rolled off your head.
4. If your helmet includes a snap to secure the loose end of the strap, use it to prevent flapping.
