Ortovox Free Rider Operating instructions

  • I have analyzed the user manual for the ORTOVOX FREE RIDER 16 and FREE RIDER 18 backpacks. This document provides instructions on utilizing the backpack, including its removable protector, helmet and gear fixation options, safety compartment, and drinking system. I am ready to answer your questions about these backpacks.
  • Can the protector be used separately?
    How can I attach my helmet?
    What kind of drinking bladder can be used with this backpack?

are free.
