Preparing Your Vest Garment for the First Time
1. Unfold and place your vest garment on a bed or sofa, so the
zipper and the adjustment tabs labeled ‘1’ through ‘4’ are facing
upward and the hose is visible.
NOTE: Take a moment to identify each of the following components:
The adjustment tabs labeled ‘1,’ located at the bottom of your vest
garment.
The adjustment tabs labeled ‘2,’ located under each armpit.
The adjustment tabs labeled ‘3,’ located at the collar.
The adjustment tabs labeled ‘4,’ located at each biceps.
In addition, take a moment to locate the zipper lanyard on the front
of your vest garment, the black cinch straps under the adjustment
tabs labeled ‘1,’ and the black handle loops at the bottom of your
vest garment on each side of the zipper (Figure 8.1.b.).
Figure 8.1.b.
2. Slide your vest garment on as you would a jacket, and use the
zipper lanyard to zip your vest garment closed (Figure 8.1.c.). Put
your thumbs through the black handle loops at the front bottom
of your vest garment, and push downward to adjust positioning.
3. Open the adjustment tabs labeled ‘1,’ and attach each tab gently
toward the rear of your vest garment – one on each side – so you
are able to access the black cinch loops.
Detach both black cinch straps from your vest garment. Pull
both straps forward at the same time toward the middle of your
abdomen, without crossing your vest garment zipper, so that
you feel a gentle – but not tight – contour at your lower back
(Figure 8.1.d.).
4. Locate the adjustment tabs labeled ‘1,’ and detach them from
your vest garment. Pull both straps forward toward the front of
your vest garment zipper, making sure not to overtighten the
garment (Figure 8.1.e.).
When applied, these tabs should overlay the black cinch straps.
NOTE: In some cases, the end of the black cinch straps may be visible.
NOTE: Ensure the bottom of the adjustment tabs labeled ‘1’ do not
extend below your vest garment.
