Key Components:

- Back D-Ring: Primary attachment point for fall arrest.
- Comfort Back Padding: Enhances user comfort during extended wear.
- Adjustable Straps: For a secure and customized fit.
Setup
- Inspect the Harness: Before each use, thoroughly inspect the harness for any signs of damage, wear, or defects. Ensure all stitching is intact and webbing is free from cuts, fraying, or chemical exposure.
- Hold by Back D-Ring: Hold the harness by the back D-ring, allowing the straps to fall into place.
- Don Shoulder Straps: Slip the shoulder straps over your shoulders, ensuring the D-ring is centered on your back between your shoulder blades.
- Connect Leg Straps: Bring the leg straps between your legs and connect them to the quick-release buckles on the waist strap. Ensure they are not twisted.
- Connect Chest Strap: Fasten the chest strap across your chest and adjust it to be approximately 6 inches (15 cm) below the top of your shoulder.
- Adjust for Fit: Adjust all straps (shoulder, leg, chest) to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. There should be no slack, but movement should not be restricted. Ensure the leg straps are tight enough so that you cannot fit your open hand between the strap and your leg.
Operating
Once the harness is properly donned and adjusted, it is ready for use as part of a complete personal fall arrest system. Connect your lanyard or self-retracting lifeline to the back D-ring. Ensure the anchorage point is suitable and capable of supporting the required load. Always maintain a clear fall path and calculate fall clearance to prevent striking lower levels or obstructions.
After a Fall:
If a fall occurs, immediately remove the harness from service. Do not use it again. The harness must be inspected by a competent person or destroyed. Contact Honeywell for guidance on post-fall procedures.
Maintenance
Cleaning:
Clean the harness regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Use a sponge or soft brush to gently scrub soiled areas. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and hang to air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight or heat. Do not use harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive cleaners.
Inspection:
A competent person must inspect the harness at least annually, or more frequently if exposed to harsh conditions. Maintain inspection records. The user must perform a visual inspection before each use.
Storage:
Store the harness in a clean, dry, and cool environment, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, corrosive chemicals, and sharp objects. Do not store under heavy items that could deform the harness.
Troubleshooting
- Harness feels uncomfortable or too loose/tight: Re-adjust all straps (shoulder, leg, chest) to ensure a snug but comfortable fit. Refer to the 'Setup' section for proper donning and adjustment.
- Buckles are difficult to fasten/unfasten: Check for dirt or debris in the buckle mechanism. Clean if necessary. If the issue persists, the buckle may be damaged, and the harness should be removed from service.
- Signs of wear or damage on webbing: Immediately remove the harness from service. Do not attempt to repair. Replace the harness.
- D-ring is not centered on the back: Adjust shoulder straps and ensure the harness is not twisted. Re-don the harness if necessary.
