PACK FIT INSTRUCTIONS SIZING/FIT DISCLAIMER: Pack depicted in images may not be the pack represented in this owner’s manual.
1 POSITION THE PACK
Completely loosen the pack’s hipbelt, harness and load-lifter straps (if
applicable). Load the pack with 10-20 lb/4-9 kg of gear. Put the pack on and
make sure the hipbelt is centered and rests over the hipbone. The hipbelt
padding should sit halfway above/below the hipbone.
6 CHECK 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 in/2.5 cm 2 in/5 cm below
the C7 vertebra.
7 TORSO LENGTH ADJUSTMENT For steps on adjusting the torso length to the
correct size, see page 8].
2 BUCKLE HIPBELT Buckle and tighten the hipbelt evenly using Osprey’s cross-
body ErgoPull. The padding of the hipbelt should wrap around the hips with
approximately 1-3 in/2.5-6 cm of webbing between the buckle and the hipbelt
when tightened.
3 HIPBELT ADJUSTMENT If the hipbelt is too large and “tops out” or does not
offer the preferred amount of coverage, the customer may need a different pack
size, model or adjustment.
4 TIGHTEN SHOULDER STRAP Tighten the shoulder harness straps by pulling them
down and back.
8 CHECK HARNESS FIT The harness straps should wrap fully around the shoulders
with no gaps between the pack and back. The padded part of the shoulder straps
should end at 2 in/5 cm or more below the armpits without topping out.
9 HARNESS/SHOULDER STRAP ADJUSTMENT If the harness is too small or large, but
the torso length of the pack is correct, the customer may need a different
pack size, model or adjustment.
10 BUCKLE THE STERNUM STRAP The sternum strap should be adjusted to
approximately 2 in/5 cm below the collarbone.
5 TIGHTEN LOAD LIFTERS (IF APPLICABLE)
Tightening the load lifters will pull the pack close to the body and help
stabilize the load. If the torso length on the pack is adjusted correctly, the
load lifters will sit between a 30- to 60-degree angle and align naturally
with the shoulder straps.

PACK FIT INSTRUCTIONS
SIZING/FIT DISCLAIMER: Pack depicted in images may not be the pack represented in this owner’s manual.
TORSO LENGTH ADJUSTMENT STEPS – AIRSCAPE
TO LENGTHEN THE TORSO LENGTH:
1 While releasing the ladder locks, located on either side of the backpanel
directly above the lumbar, slide the harness up along the LightWire frame to
the appropriate torso length.
TO SHORTEN THE TORSO LENGTH:
1 Slide the harness down along the LightWire frame to the appropriate torso
length.
2 It is easiest to do this one side at a time, sliding the harness with one ladder lock and then the other.
2 Use the white markings on the edge of the backpanel as a guideline to align each side of the harness.
3 Use the white markings on the edge of the backpanel as a guideline to align each side of the harness. When the pack is not in use, the harness will easily slide up and down the LightWire frame. However, when the pack is onbody, the ladder locks will engage the harness’ webbing and the harness will adjust to the desired height.
3 Tighten the webbing at the ladder locks, located on either side of the backpanel directly above the lumbar, to tension.
