FAQs
What is the primary material of the Raccoon 45L backpack?
The backpack is constructed from extremely durable Cordura Nylon, known for its resistance to abrasion, tearing, and water.
Is the backpack suitable for carrying a laptop?
While it has multiple compartments, it does not feature a dedicated padded laptop sleeve. A separate padded sleeve would be recommended for laptop transport.
How do I adjust the FAS Plus military carrying system?
The FAS Plus system typically allows for torso length adjustment via a sliding mechanism on the shoulder straps. Consult the specific adjustment points on the backpack for precise instructions.
Can I attach extra gear to the outside of the backpack?
Yes, the backpack features a MOLLE-compatible system, allowing you to attach various pouches and gear externally.
What is the capacity of the backpack in liters?
The backpack has a capacity of 45 liters.
Is the backpack waterproof?
The Cordura Nylon material offers water resistance, but the backpack itself is not fully waterproof. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, using a separate rain cover is advisable.
What is the difference between this and larger Wisport Raccoon models?
The Raccoon 45L is a more compact version, offering a balance between capacity and weight. Larger models (like 65L and 85L) provide more storage space for extended trips or bulkier gear.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel uncomfortable or dig in
Adjust the FAS Plus system to your torso length. Ensure the load is properly balanced within the pack, with heavier items closer to your back.
MOLLE webbing is difficult to attach items to
Ensure you are using genuine MOLLE-compatible pouches. Thread the PALS straps through the webbing correctly, following a top-down or bottom-up pattern as intended by the pouch design.
Zipper is stiff or hard to move
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers. Avoid forcing a stuck zipper.
Backpack feels heavier than expected
Review the contents of your backpack and consider if any non-essential items can be removed. Ensure the weight is distributed evenly, with heavier items placed towards the center of your back.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The primary setup involves adjusting the FAS Plus military carrying system to your torso length for optimal comfort and weight distribution. Attach any additional pouches or gear to the MOLLE webbing as needed. Ensure the main compartment and any auxiliary pockets are logically packed for easy access to your items.
Compatibility: The backpack is compatible with most standard hydration bladders (typically up to 3 liters). The MOLLE system is designed to accept a wide range of MOLLE-compatible accessories from various manufacturers.
Care: To maintain the backpack's condition, clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the fabric and coatings. Ensure the backpack is completely dry before storing to prevent mold or mildew. Periodically check all zippers, buckles, and straps for wear and tear, and clean any accumulated dirt or debris from the webbing and frame.
