How to Put on a Harness

6 Easy Steps that Could Save Your Life
Step 1 Step 1
Hold harness by back D-ring. Shake harness to allow all straps to fall in place.
Step 2 Step 2
If chest, leg and/or waist straps are buckled, release straps and unbuckle at this time.
       
Step 3 Step 3
Slip straps over shoulders so D-ring is located in middle of back between shoulder blades.
Step 4 Step 4
Pull leg strap between legs and connect to opposite end. Repeat with second leg strap. If belted harness, connect waist strap after leg straps.
       
Step 5 Step 5
Connect chest strap and position in midchest area. Tighten to keep shoulder straps taut.
Step 6 Step 6
After all straps have been buckled, tighten all buckles so that harness fits snug but allows full range of movement. Pass excess strap through loop keepers.
