Yes, exactly, so that diagram shows the anti-sub belt mounted 0-20 degrees behind the chest plane.
On page 27 it says:
On page 27 it says:
"Anti-submarining strap routing shall be vertical down from the groin, preferably approximately 20° back.
Anchor points shall be approximately 100 mm [4�?] lateral apart from each other. In case of a a low seating position (e.g. in open wheel race cars), this separation may be reduced since the anchor points are closer to the thighs."
So this is saying that 0' how we have them is ok, but mounting back farther is better. Also about the 100mm spacing, my 2 sub straps are right next to each other, no gap whatsoever on the bar. Attached this way, what possible benefit could 2 straps have over 1? The straps for the 6-point should be far enough apart to get the desired cradling effect.
Reading from the manuals is great, but there may be slight model specific differences. The Profi 6-point seems to have a larger T bar for the sub straps than mine do. Notice, also on page 27, they give a description of installing the subs so that they pass through the back of the seat and you sit on them.
As a final point, they have a big warning box that reads:[size=1]
[size=2]Never use the SCHROTH Racing Harness unless the racing seat is designed with anti-submarining holes. Never run the anti-submarining straps over the front edge of a factory seat down to the floor. Such routing does not provide the desired anti-submarining effect, and in fact encourages submarining, which can cause severe injury and death.
