c. Earcups (Figure 2-2). If necessary, the earcups can be rotated within the retention assembly for optimum fit and
noise reduction.

d. Cross Straps (Figure 2-3). The cross strap buckles can be adjusted for proper earcup tension by tightening and
loosening as required (through trial and error).
e. Earcup Spacer Pads (Figure 2-4). If further earcup fitting is required after the cross straps have been adjusted,
earcup spacer pads can be affixed to the earcups. Each earcup spacer pad set contains two thick pads and two thin
pads; any number of pads can be used to suit individual needs. The pads can be cut to any size or shape needed
(through trial and error) for the best earseal compression.
