Step 4

Attaching The 3M Comtac Peltors To The Adapters

Clip the posts onto each side of the 3M Peltor Comtac Communication headset.  See Image below. Repeat on the second communications headset earcup. 

Attaching The Adapters To The Helmet 

Step 1

Identify the W spacer plate on the helmet accessory rail. Use a 1/8' Allen key to remove the two screws that hold it in place. Remove the W spacer plate and accompanying screws from the accessory rail and set them aside for safekeeping.  (Displayed Below)

Step 2

With the metal guide wires down in the locked position, insert the tab of the adapter into the T-slot on the helmet accessory rail. 

Step 3

Center the adapter over the spacer recess in the helmet accessory rail and press firmly unit you hear and feel a positive click. 

Note: Raising the guide wires into the unlocked position allows the operator to swivel the communication cups away from the ears to rest against the side of the helmet when not in use.  Snap the guide wire into the locked position for the communication cups to fit closely against the ears.
