How: To Universal MountUpdated an hour ago

Follow the below instructions for best results with the Universal Mount: Before you start 

  • Prep on the front side of the pad, install on the back.
  • In the box: the strap comes pre-tensioned on the front, and that pre-tensioned section is what holds the Core sensor to the plate. On the back, stitched T stops prevent the strap pulling through the slots.

1. Choose the spot: Flat and central, on or just below the chest plate.

2. Before you peel: Two checks, both before the liner comes off:

  • Dry and clean. Wipe the spot and let it dry completely.
  • Flattest spot. Hold the plate in place with the liner still on and pick the flattest area of the pad. A curved surface is shown as incorrect.

3. Peel the adhesive liner: Flip the plate over and remove the backing.

4. Press firmly and hold for 30 seconds: Firm, even pressure across the plate.

5. Wrap the strap around the pillar: Keep the mount secure as you pull the strap tight.

6. Pull snug across the plate and lock the strap: The strap lies over the hook pad, loop side down.

7. Seat the strap inside the left slot: Guide the strap edge fully into the slot opening.

8. Trim the excess: Cut the loop tail where the hook pad ends.

9. Done. Strap locked: Loop fully mated to the hook pad, with no tail left over.

Removing the Core: Peel the loop side back and lift at the right end to free the Core. The mount itself stays in place.
