Troubleshooting

Pack feels uncomfortable or rubs.

Re-adjust the pack, paying close attention to the hipbelt, shoulder straps, and load lifter straps. Ensure the pack size is appropriate for your torso length.

Raincover doesn't fit properly.

Ensure the raincover is correctly oriented and that the pack is not overstuffed. Make sure the rain cover is the correct size for the pack.
