The chinstrap should be tight enough to keep the helmet in place during sudden movements but not uncomfortably so.

Easy Click System for Accessories

The helmet is equipped with integrated slots for the Easy Click System, allowing for quick and secure attachment of KASK visors and other compatible face and eye protection accessories. Align the accessory's attachment points with the helmet's slots and press firmly until you hear a click, indicating it is securely fastened.
