INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: As a precaution, it is essential to wear this helmet during all equestrian activities. For adequate protection, this helmet must be worn correctly and adjusted to fit the head; to ensure this, it is available in a variety of sizes. For maximum protection, this helmet must fit snugly against the head, and the helmet’s retention system must always be properly adjusted and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. It is important to select the correct size and adjust the helmet properly. For children, you should never choose a helmet that is too large, thinking that they will “grow into it.” To prevent the helmet from being pulled off, make sure the chin strap is properly adjusted and tightened; also adjust the rear retention system, if present (Fig. 2).

The helmet must be securely fastened—not too tight, but tight enough so that it moves as little as possible on your head; it should not shift forward, backward, or side to side (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)Keep in mind that while you are riding, the helmet may move more.
