HOOK-PILE TAPE LOWERING LINE (M1950) AND LEG STRAP RELEASE ASSEMBLIES9-100. The JM grasps the ejector snap of the HPTLL and routes it from front to back, between the main body of the M1950 weapon’s case and the first ply of reinforced nylon webbing. The JM then attaches the ejector snap to the triangle link on the jumper’s left side with the opening gate facing toward the jumper’s body. (This is the tandem load configuration.)9-101. After the jumper is fully rigged, the JM routes the male portion leg strap release assemblies around the jumper’s appropriate leg and attaches it to the female portion of the leg strap release assembly.9-102. If the jumper is exiting from the left paratroop door, the right adjustable leg strap will be routed around the right leg, and the left adjustable leg strap is placed around the modular Airborne weapon’s case on the jumper’s left side.9-103. If the jumper is exiting from the right paratroop door, the left adjustable leg strap is routed around the jumper’s left leg and modular Airborne weapon’ case. The right adjustable leg strap will not be used.Note. Adjustable leg straps should be tightly secured but must not be so tight that they prevent the jumper from executing a strong exit.POST-HANG INSPECTION9-104. Once the JM has completed hanging the equipment on the jumper, they complete a post-hang inspection to verify all of the attachments are properly attached and secured. At a minimum, the following is conducted: The snap hooks of the adjustable D-ring attaching straps are properly attached to the equipment rings with the opening gates facing towards the jumper, and the adjustable D-ring attaching strap is not twisted. (MAWC) The snap shackle is the outermost item of equipment on the left equipment ring, if rigged as part of a tandem load. Ensure that the locking pin is fully seated and the yellow safety lanyard is secured to the appropriate snap fastener (whichever creates the least amount of tension). (M1950) The quick release snap is the outermost item of equipment on the left equipment ring, if rigged as part of a tandem load. Ensure the activating arm of the quick release snap is seated between the ball detents. (MAWC) Ensure that the upper tie down tape is properly routed through the window on the slide fastener and tab thong, around the body of the MAWC, from back to front through the small cutaway portion of the equipment ring, is secured with a single or double loop bowknot on the lead edge of the MAWC, and is easily accessible to the jumper. (M1950) Ensure that the upper tie down tape is properly routed from back to front, bottom to top through the left D-ring, on the outside of the connector snap. Then secure the upper tie down tape with a single or double loop bowknot on the lead edge of the M1950 weapon’s case. (MAWC) Ensure that the HPTLL is properly routed through the attachment strap and its ejector snap is attached to the left triangle link with the opening gate facing towards the jumper and the activating lever is fully seated. (M1950) Ensure that the HPTLL is properly routed between the main body of the M1950 weapon’s case and the first ply of reinforced nylon webbing. Ensure the ejector snap of the hook- pile tape lowering line is attached to the left triangle link with the opening gate facing towards the jumper, and the activating lever is fully seated. Ensure that the leg strap release assemblies are routed appropriately. If the jumper is exiting from the left paratroop door, the right adjustable leg strap will be routed around the right leg, and the left adjustable leg strap is placed around the modular Airborne weapon’s case on the jumper’s left side. If the jumper is exiting from the right paratroop door, the left adjustable leg strap will be routed around the jumper’s left leg and modular Airborne weapon’s case, and the right adjustable leg strap will not be used.
