ASSEMBLING THE MIRPS

TM 10-1670-269-23&P 0005 00 0005 00-2 ASSEMBLING THE MIRPS Inspection 1. Inspect the pack tray to ensure that the four grommets in the bottom of the pack tray are free of burrs and rough spots, and have a firm seating. 2. Fasten and inspect the lift-the-dots fasteners (4 sets) to ensure they can be released from the pack side only. Pack Tray 1. Insert the connector snaps through the slots on the bottom inside of the tray (from inside to outside), with the opening gates facing up and positioned between the size “O” grommets. 2. Pass the type VI webbing with lift-the-dots through the rectangular slot of the connector snap and secure by snapping the female portion to the male portion. Tie a suitable length of type I, ¼-inch cotton webbing around the outside portion of each connector snap just below the last suspension line. Make three turns single with type I, ¼-cotton webbing and tie with a surgeon’s knot and locking knot. Trim the ends to within 1-inch. This tie is to prevent the suspension lines from falling throught the rectangular slot after the parachute is packed.
