2.6. Residual risks
The supplied micro-encapsulated screws can break
or come loose if they are re-used several times. In
some circumstances, this can cause the racing shell to
become detached from its anchoring in the event of an
accident, and thus present a danger to life and safety.
Use only the supplied micro-encapsulated screws
when installing the racing shell.
Use the supplied micro-encapsulated screws only
once.
Tighten all screws with the specified torque.
3. Installation
NotIcE
The interplay between racing shell and adapter is cru-
cial to how the entire seat system behaves.
Mount the RECARO Pro Racer SPG XL HANS and
RECARO Pro Racer SPA XL HANS racing shells
only with the independently tested RECARO adapt-
er 7206293.
3.1. Positioning the racing shell in the vehicle
Select the most comfortable seat position for yourself
that is safest for driving the vehicle:
You must be able to completely hold the top edge of
the steering wheel without lifting yourself out of the
seat with your back.
When the clutch or brake pedal is fully pressed, your
knee should still be slightly angled.
Make sure that the restraint systems and the roll cage
are correctly installed (see the manufacturer's instal-
lation instructions).
