Harness Adjustment - Sigma TANDEM VECTOR Owner's Manual

Please use the following guide to keep your students safe and comfortable.
Loosen the harness before donning.
Rotate the harness on the student's shoulders so the Top Attachment Snaps will be easy to hook
up.
Adjust the chest strap loosely.
Adjust the Belt Strap so the main lift webs are positioned as shown. The Horizontal Back and Belt
Straps should be tightened firmly around the hips.
Adjust the Main Lift Webs and Diagonals so the harness's Hip Junctions are resting squarely on
the student' hips.
Tighten the Leg Straps.
Slide the Chest Strap vertically into the correct position and tighten.
Tip: It's recommended to hook up and pre-hang your student so the harness conforms to the
student's body. Release the student and check all adjustment points. You may find it necessary
to tighten the harness a bit more.
The Horizontal Back Strap must be positioned low and securely tightened. This is what keeps the
student from falling backwards out of the harness on a hard opening.
On anyone with a larger body frame the Main Lift Webs should be positioned further apart than on
a smaller person.
There is no single right way to fit every size or shape of the human body. The harness has 13
points of adjustments. Use them to totally surround and contain the student's body.
