The Buck LineBacker is specifically designed for the line worker who already has a Linemens Two 'D' Body Belt.
Simply attach the LineBacker to your existing Linemens Two 'D' Body Belt to convert it into a Four D-ring Body Belt.
Four D-ring Body Belts are designed to be used with Wood Pole Fall Restriction Devices (WPFRD) and Adjustable
Positioning Lanyards (APL) in order for the user to be continuously fall protected while performing tasks such as
transitioning over obstructions such as crossarms.
The LineBacker can be added to any Linemens Body Belt to give you customizable lumbar support, an abdominal
stabilizer system and the Four D-ring option.
The LineBacker, designed in consultation with a Doctor of Physical Therapy to promote immediate comfort and
long term benefits to the skeletal structure, can be used with various positioning devices such as a conventional
positioning strap, Adjustable Positioning Lanyard or retractable lanyard. Buckingham offers a complete and
compatible system to your existing two D-ring Body Belt consisting of the LineBacker (converting your belt to a
Four D-ring Body Belt), Wood Pole Fall Restriction Device (SuperSqueeze or BuckSqueeze) and an Adjustable
Positioning Lanyard (BuckAdjuster). While working in a Wood Pole Fall Restriction Device (SuperSqueeze or
BuckSqueeze) attached to the lower D-rings and the positioning device attached to the upper D-rings, the user is
supported around the buttocks providing superior comfort. The lumbar pad offers additional support in the lower
back area.
LineBacker
Using the LineBacker, SuperSqueeze or BuckSqueeze and BuckAdjuster the section below describes a
suggested method for the user to be continuously fall protected while transitioning past obstructions. Ensure you
read, understand and follow these instructions as well as those for Buckingham's SuperSqueeze or BuckSqueeze
and BuckAdjuster prior to using this equipment.
1) The lower Body Belt D-rings are to be used with your
primary positioning / WPFR device (Fig. 1).
2) The upper Body Belt D-rings are intended only as
attachment points for temporary connection while
transitioning past obstructions. It is an acceptable
practice to stow a positioning device such as the
BuckAdjuster or conventional positioning strap from one
of the upper D-rings when not in use. The locking
connecting device of the BuckAdjuster or conventional
positioning strap must be attached to the same upper D-
ring during stowage. An alternate method of stowage for
the locking connecting device end of the BuckAdjuster is
the use of a break-a-way handline hook. The use of the breakaway hook allows the locking connecting
device end to pull free in the event it becomes snagged. If using a retractable lanyard, simply stow the
webbing in the retracted position.
