You want your helmet to:

1. be snug on your head so even without the chinstrap, so you can nod your head and have it stay stable
   
   
2. ride just above your eyebrows
   
   
3. have the chinstrap comfortable, but snug

So, before adjusting the chinstrap, experiment with different pad configurations inside the helmet.

Note that chinstraps often come loose from the factory:

1. tighten up the sliding plastic buckles on all 4 straps
   
   
2. if needed unscrew the bolts to move to the next bolt hole grommet to tighten up
   
   
3. in extreme situations you could tighten up the helmet with thicker ACH pads, or
   
   
4. at a shoe repair or upholstery shop, you could add another grommet to tighten the chinstrap even further. You can do it yourself on the rear 2 straps just by folding the grommets over on the stap to tighten it up about an inch, and burning a new hole through the grommet with a soldering iron (so you don't have to add a new metal grommet).
