To trim your Battle Belt, Competition Belt or Executive-Protection Belt to size, follow the instructions or video below.
1. Size Outer Belt Line up the measuring tape next to the outer belt, find pant size on measuring tape & cut on the mark. For example, if your pant size is 36", cut the outer belt at the 36" mark.
2. Size Inner Velcro Belt Line up the measuring tape next to the inner belt, find pant size on measuring tape, subtract 1" & cut the inner belt at the mark. For example, if your pant size is 36", cut the inner belt at the 35" mark.
3. Attach Buckle to Outer Belt Back out (don't remove) the 2 set screws on the back of the buckle, insert the cut end of the outer belt into the buckle receptacle, clamp teeth down firmly & gently tighten the set screws until flush. Do not over tighten or force the set screws.
4. Try Belts on for Size First, feed inner belt through your belt loops, attach the 2 velcro sides of the inner belt & center the hex material section over your zipper. There should not be any velcro belt visible behind the 4" hex material section. If there is, remove & trim off that amount.
Next, place the buckle on the right edge of the hex material section & attach the outer belt around your waist overtop the inner belt. Feed the tip of the belt through the buckle & pull snug. Use the included tip keeper to secure the tip of the belt.
5. Final Step If you can't make your belt tight enough, it's too long. Remove the outer belt & buckle, then cut an inch at a time until ideal fit is reached. Last, singe or trim excess fibres from the cut end of
the inner velcro belt & attach metal clip to the cut end of the inner belt.
*If you accidentally remove the screws entirely, ensure they're reinserted correctly by turning them counter clockwise until you feel a click. This is the screw's thread seating correctly. Then, begin to tighten the screws normally.
Battle Belt Setup Tip: Bend the outer belt slightly backward to open up MOLLE for easy gear installation.
