ASSEMBLY
Assembling the MC1-1B/CM1-1E Parachute. When the parachute is received from the supply activity,
and before it is packed for use, the components must be assembled. This must be accomplished during
the layout of the parachute (WP 0011 00). If, in assembling components, any component is found to be
defective, the parachute must be processed for repair. Place the components on a packing table and
obtain proper layout of the canopy assembly; then assemble components as follows:
1. MC1-1B/MC1-1E Harness. Attach the harness to the pack tray as follows:
a. Place the pack tray on the table, with back strap retainers and keepers up, and with the end flap
containing the static line slack retainer toward the apex end of the table.
b. Attach the harness to the pack tray as illustrated, by threading each of the pack tray diagonal
back-strap-retainers through the harness diagonal back-strap-channels (for the required size),
and through the back-strap keepers.
