Product Information

Full details

This guide is for owners of older Simpson Hybrid models (Pro Rage and Hybrid Pro) looking to upgrade their safety system. The Simpson M61 Quick Release Tether Set (Option 2) allows you to convert your existing standard tether to the M61 quick release system, offering enhanced convenience and integration with Simpson Quick Release Helmet Anchors. A key benefit is the faster, more secure helmet attachment. The primary caveat is that the Quick Release Helmet Anchors are sold separately and must be purchased in addition to this tether set.

FAQs

Which Simpson Hybrid models are compatible with the M61 Quick Release Tether Set - Option 2?

This tether set is specifically designed for the older Simpson Hybrid Pro Rage and Hybrid Pro models.

Do I need to buy anything else to use this product?

Yes, you must purchase the Simpson Quick Release Helmet Anchors separately. These tethers are designed to work in conjunction with those anchors.

How do I install these tethers onto my Hybrid device?

You will need to remove the existing standard tethers from your compatible Simpson Hybrid device and then attach the new M61 Quick Release Tethers according to the installation instructions provided with your Hybrid device.

Can I use these tethers with any helmet anchors?

No, these tethers are designed exclusively for use with Simpson Quick Release Helmet Anchors to ensure proper function and safety.

How often should I inspect the tethers?

It is recommended to inspect the tethers before each use, and thoroughly check for wear and tear regularly, especially if used frequently.

What if the quick release mechanism feels stiff?

Ensure the mechanism and associated anchors are clean and free of dirt or debris. A very small amount of appropriate lubricant might be considered, but consult the Simpson product manual or customer support first.

Troubleshooting

Tether not engaging with helmet anchor.

Ensure both the tether and the helmet anchor are clean and free of debris. Verify that the tether is correctly installed on the Hybrid device and that the helmet anchor is properly attached to the helmet. Confirm you are using the correct M61 tether set for your specific Hybrid model and that you have purchased compatible Simpson Quick Release Helmet Anchors.

Difficulty detaching the helmet.

Gently wiggle the helmet while operating the quick-release mechanism. Check for any obstructions preventing the release. If the issue persists, inspect the anchor and tether for damage.

Tether appears damaged or worn.

Immediately cease use and replace the tether. Continued use of damaged safety equipment can be dangerous. Contact Simpson Performance Products or an authorized dealer for replacement parts.
