Proteckthor B1 Assembly
Assembling the Proteckthor B1 is a simple process that ensures you are protected while enjoying your favorite sport. Below, we present a detailed guide to assemble your protective headband quickly and efficiently.
Before starting, make sure you have both parts that form the Proteckthor B1:
- •The elastic adjustment strap
- •The Proteckthor protection device
Each side of the device has three slots. We will identify the "first slot" as the one located furthest to the outside or edge of the Proteckthor.
Step 1: Insert the elastic strap
Start from either side. Insert the strap from the inside to the outside through the first slot (the outermost one). This step is key to ensuring that the strap stays secure and doesn't move during use.
Step 2: Second slot
Now insert the strap into the middle slot, this time from the outside to the inside. This adjustment adds stability and security to the assembly.
Step 3: Third slot
From the inside of the Proteckthor, insert the strap outward again through the last inner slot. This ensures a firm and durable anchor.
Step 4: Assembly closure
To complete the assembly, bring the strap from the outside to the inside of the first slot. Repeat this same process on the other side of the Proteckthor. Once both sides are finished, adjust the elastic strap to your head.
Correct Placement
To ensure maximum protection, follow these steps when placing and adjusting the Proteckthor:
- 1Make sure the product is clean and dry before use.
- 2Place the strap around the head, covering the upper part of the forehead.
- 3Verify that the Proteckthor logo is in the correct position: with the letters readable and facing forward.
- 4Adjust the strap so that it is firm but comfortable, avoiding discomfort or excessive pressure.
- 5Before starting any activity, verify that the Proteckthor is properly positioned and has not moved.
