INFORMATION SHEET FOR BACK
PROTECTORS WHICH ARE USED WITH
MOTORBIKE, BICYCLE OR WINTER
SPORTS CLOTHING OR OTHER
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.
This back protector was designed,
manufactured and tested according to
EUROPEAN STANDARD 1621-2:2014
LEVEL 1 for devices which protect against
mechanical impact.
CAUTION:
Provided that it is correctly used and worn,
this protector can minimise the consequences
associated with mechanical impact in the
areas protected by it.
However, it cannot guarantee
complete protection. Spinal injuries
or fractures cannot be prevented.
MEANING OF THE ‘CE’ MARK
The CE mark of conformity on the protective
device documents the conformity of the
product with the corresponding standard
and directive of the European Community
which demands the afxing of this mark
and certies that the protective device
has been subjected to an EC prototype
test. The conformity with the requirements
of the European Directive 89/686/EEC
for personal protective equipment (and
subsequent modications) as well as with the
those of the harmonising technical standard
1621-2:2014 was certied by the testing
institute TÜV Rheinland LGA Products GmbH,
Tillystr. 2, D-90431 Nürnberg, Germany,
notied body 0197.

1. LEVEL OF PROTECTION
1621-2:2014 LEVEL 1
Degree of protection ‘1’, ‘kerbstone test’:
impact energy 50J, transmitted residual force
less than 18 kN
Degree of protection ‘2’, ‘kerbstone test’:
impact energy 50J, transmitted residual force
less than 9 kN
The degree of protection given is printed on
the webbing sewn in to the interior of the
protector (or simply on its exterior).
This protector complies with Class 1.
The protector offers limited protection (in so
far as it is correctly used and worn) against
the consequences of a strong mechanical
force, such as would occur with a fall or
an impact. also, in the case of a fall on a
motorbike or cycle, or during winter sports,
for example, it can lessen the severity of
cuts and bruises in the region protected
by the device. however, it does not
provide a guarantee that no physical
injury will be sustained! it is therefore
recommended that motorcycle riders, sports
cyclists and those practising winter sports
use the back protector. However, this should
not be interpreted as encouragement to be
careless or to drive recklessly while using
it. The degree of protection given by the
back protector remains undiminished only
as long as its original characteristics remain
unaltered. For this reason modications and/
or repairs must not be undertaken without
the approval of the manufacturer.
The cushioning in the neck and rump areas
do not comply with the 1621-2:2014 and
do not provide sufcient protection.
The manufacturers cannot accept
liability for any consequences
whatsoever which are attributable to
unauthorised alterations or repairs.
2. DESIGNATED USE
This back protector has been designed for
use by motorbike riders, sport cyclists and
those practising winter sports. It may be used
on its own, with other suitable protective
equipment or combined with clothing.
3. TIPS FOR USE
It is important to wear the back protector
along the spinal area of the back (with the
soft padding against your back) to ensure
that maximum effect is achieved. Make sure
that the writing is readable and not upside
down.
4. CORRECT SIZE
The back protector is available
in three sizes.Please use the
back protector according to the
body size and the hip - shoulder
distance of the wearer. No single
variable can be suitable for all
body dimensions.
Size Body height
XS/S approx. 141-157 cm 40-44 cm
M approx. 157-173 cm 45-49 cm
L/XL approx. 173-191 cm 50-54 cm
Hip-Shoulder
Distance
FURTHER TIPS:
Once the protector is positioned as per
instructions, check its t by putting the
appropriate jacket on over it and carrying
out all the physical actions you will later
go through when performing the particular
activity for which its use is designed (i.e.
cycling, motorcycling, winter sports). Secure
the back protector using the waist strap
(which has hook-and-loop fastening).
CAUTION:
It is important to carry out a basic check on
the protector before use in case there is any
damage, such as fractures or tears. Even
only minor ones may impair its function.
In case of damage, or if the protector has
been subjected to a signicant impact, the
protector must be replaced.
The back protector will only full its
protective function if it is correctly
tted and secured and is in an
undamaged state. The manufacturers
cannot accept liability for any
damage and any consequences
whatsoever which may arise from
improper use, or from wearing
clothing that is partially or wholly
unsuitable for the back protector to
be positioned correctly.
5. LIMITATIONS OF USE
The tests to ascertain the back protector’s
impact absorption capacity were carried
out according to the regulations, at a
temperature of between 15 °C and 22 °C
and with a relative humidity of between 60%
and 70%. With values beyond these ranges
the impact absorption capacity of the back
protector may change.
It is absolutely necessary to wear
appropriate clothing over the back protector.
Under no circumstances must it be worn
outside (or without) clothing.
6. PROTECTION ZONE
The back protector
gives protection within
the protection zone, as
shown in the illustration
1
(1). if the back protector
is no longer in the
condition it was as
supplied to the customer,
or if a damaged back
protector is used
adequate protection is
no longer afforded.
7. STORAGE, CARE, CLEANING
To keep the protector in good condition
we recommend that you store it in a dry,
well-ventilated environment, away from heat
sources, windows, doors or glass panels,
and that you avoid leaving it in direct
sunlight. The ambient temperature must
thereby never fall below 5 °c or above 70°C
(which temperature can be exceeded in the
car in summer weather, for example). avoid
both extreme cold and heat.
You should also make sure that the back
protector is stored with its inside uppermost
to ensure that no weight will come to rest on
it, as this can cause deformation or damage.
We strongly advise that you check the
fastener systems of the protector after each
use for possible breaches or other defects.
should any tears or damaged areas, even
of a minor nature, be discovered, please
correspond with the manufacturer to arrange
a further assessment.
