Depending on the various versions and the country
concerned, your Heritage SHARK helmet is equipped
with a chin strap with a "Precise Lock" rapid buckle
with a snap lock or one with a double D ring. The "Pre-
cise Lock" snap lock system gives you precise and
accurate adjustment because of the considerable len-
gth of its notched section. However, it is essential on
purchase to adapt the length of the chin strap to your
measurements. Adjust the length of the strap using the
adjusting buckle (Figs. A, B, C and D). Choose your He-
ritage helmet and attach the holding system. When the
"Precise Lock" is adjusted to the medium position, the
chin strap must be correctly tensioned under the chin
to hold the helmet firmly without causing you any dis-
comfort or pain. To fasten the chin strap, all you have
to do is to thread the tongue into its place on the buc-
kle until tension is perfect (Fig. E). The tongue connects
and is automatically blocked. To release the chin strap,
you have to pull on the lever (Fig. F) and remove the
tongue from the buckle. Although the notched tongue
enables you to change the adjustment precisely on

each use, it is important to check frequently that the
adjustment of the strap length is correct. Warning:
never ride with the chin strap loose or insufficiently
tightened. Even though the interior padding gives you
the impression of being held, your helmet risks coming
off in a fall. Never apply lubricating or acid products
or grease or solvents to the chin strap buckle parts.
Additional safety system
Your Heritage helmet has a specific additional holding
system that minimises the risk of coming off. This is
an additional guarantee of safety that avoids the loss
of the helmet by limiting its rotation in case of shock.
However, this system should not override the fastening
and proper adjustment of the chin strap.
Warning: never ride with the chin strap loose or in-
sufficiently tightened. Even though the interior padding
gives you the impression of being held, your helmet
risks coming off in a fall. Never apply lubricating or
acid products or grease or solvents to the chin strap
buckle parts.
