To properly fit and adjust the Werner Full Body Harness, follow these steps:
1. Hold the dorsal (back) D-ring of the Full Body Harness and shake it to allow all straps to fall into place. Ensure that the straps are not buckled or twisted.
2. Slip one shoulder strap over one shoulder, then pull the other shoulder strap around the back and over the second shoulder, just like putting on a jacket. The dorsal D-ring should be located on your back, while the chest strap is located in the front. Make sure that the straps are not tangled as the harness hangs freely from your shoulders.
3. Pull one leg strap between your legs and connect it to the opposite end on the same side. Repeat with the second leg strap. Ensure that the leg straps are not twisted or crossed.
4. Adjust the shoulder straps with the two adjusters located at the lower end of the shoulder strap. Adjust the left and right sides to the same length. The chest strap and front (sternal) D-ring, if applicable, should be centered on your lower chest. If adjusting the shoulder straps causes the dorsal D-ring to move, reposition it between your shoulder blades. Adjust the positioning of the dual-layer shoulder padding using the black web hook and loop between the layered pads. Once all the straps have been tightened and the Full Body Harness fits snugly, secure all excess straps through the web keepers.
5. The sub-pelvic strap should be snugly positioned below your xxxx . The relief cord can be utilized to help with the discomfort of suspension after a fall occurs. The correct sub-pelvic position is the result of the correct combination of all the Full Body Harness adjustments.
Note: It is important to receive proper training from a "competent person" as defined by OSHA before using the Full Body Harness. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for specific fitting and adjustment guidelines.
