All the straps arrive at their basic settings. 

This is marked by white sewing for the 

shoulder and back straps. To arrange your 
perfect personal adjustments start from 
these settings. Hang up the PROGRESS 3 

by its carabiners, sit in the harness and 

close the chest strap ( this will include the 

leg loops).

1. Back strap adjustment

The relatively high back straps, at the si-

des, provide good back support and take 
pressure from the shoulders. They set the 
upper body recline angle. Pulled in they 
create an upright back position. 
Completely released results in more of a 

lying attitude. ADVANCE recommends the 
basic setting.

2. Seat strap adjustment

Now adjust the seat surface strap: when 
pulled in, this support strap raises the sit-
ting area and results in a flat seat angle. 
When completely loosened it is easier to 
sit in the harness after takeoff.

3. Shoulder strap adjustment

The PROGRESS 3 shoulder straps should 

be adjusted to suit the pilot’s height and 

desired sitting angle. The continuous 

adjustment system is located at shoulder 

height. For the ideal setting there should 
be approximately 2 cm clearance between 

shoulder and strap.

4. Distance between leg straps

The distance between the Leg Pads can 

also be adjusted in flight. By shortening 
the connecting strap on long flights, pres-
sure on the inner thighs can be relaxed.

Tip:

 For maximum comfort and free-

dom for takeoff, landing and ground 

handling the PROGRESS 3 LegPad 

spacing should be as wide as 
possible.

5. Setting the small chest strap

The small chest strap holds the shoulder 

straps in the best position for takeoff  
and landing. The width can be adjusted to 
any position.

Info: 

All the above adjustments can 

also be altered in the air.
