SHARED FEATURES
HYDRAULICS™ RESERVOIR

This enables the reservoir to conform to the back’s complex shape, even when full. The result is a more precise,stableandcomfortablefit.Additionally,the reservoir has an integrated lightweight, low profile handle/spine that stabilizes the load of the
water while also serving as a more convenient design to slide the reservoir into the pack .Other Hydraulics™ Reservoir features include:

INSERTING/REMOVING THE HYDRAULICS™ RESERVOIR
A Undo the two load lifter buckles found at the top of the duckbill closure flap to gain entrance into the pack’s dedicated hydration compartment. B Grasp the RapidFill™ cap attachment loop at the top of the reservoir and remove. C Use the handle/spine to insert the reservoir back into the Hydraulics™ compartment.
Note: The small, quick release attachment strap is included as an option to secure non Hydraulics™ reservoirs.
Filling the Hydraulics™ Reservoir
Grasp the handle/spine in one hand, undo the wide mouth cap with the other hand and fill as desired. Replace the cap ensuring the gasket is in place and invert to test.
Note: Removing air from the reservoir after filling with water will help prevent excess slosh. To do this, hold reservoir upside down, pinch the bite valve and squeeze the reservoir until all air is expelled.
AirSpeed™ Suspension
The Syncro Series Packs feature a peripheral LightWire™ alloy frame. Mesh is stretched taut over a ridge molded foam backpanel. This frame support creates a lightweight and ventilated backpanel providing excellent comfort, carry and pack to back contact.
