At times, the Walkaway bracket may only be mounted on two straps<br />
(see photo to left). When the self-contained breathing apparatus is<br />
pulled out of the bracket, the universal backplate may be deflected<br />
backwards at either the top or bottom. To prevent the universal<br />
backplate from deflecting, we suggest the use of the extruded backplate<br />
support. The backplate support should be mounted between<br />
the Walkaway bracket and the seat straps. The dimensions are .170”<br />
thick x 4” wide x 22.5” long.<br />

CHANGING SPRING CLIPS<br />
Spring clips may be removed from the WALKAWAY® bracket when:<br />
1. Replacing your current SCBA cylinder with either a smaller or larger diameter air<br />
cylinder, or<br />
2. When changing clips on which the protective coating has worn through to bare steel.<br />
On Knock-down brackets you simply unbolt the clips and replace them with new ones.<br />
Instructions are provided with brackets when converting bracket to SC-50-H style.<br />
With assembled brackets, follow these simple steps:<br />
