Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the zipper track is free of debris. Apply a small amount of graphite (pencil lead) or a zipper lubricant to the teeth and work the zipper back and forth.
Strap adjustment is slipping.
Ensure the ladder lock adjuster is properly engaged and the excess strap tail is secured. If the strap material is new or very smooth, it might require more frequent readjustment.
Bag feels uncomfortable when worn.
Adjust the padded shoulder strap length and the cross-chest stabilizer strap for a balanced fit. Ensure the load is distributed evenly within the main compartment and front pocket.
Water getting inside the bag.
