for use by individuals weighing up to 420 pounds (fully equipped) only when used with an equivalently rated energy absorbing
lanyard or personal fall limiter / accessories.

various attachments that may be provided on this Harness.
Read and understand all labels and instructions attached to and packed with your harness.
Straightening Your Harness:
Pick up your harness by the Dorsal D-ring and shake it to allow the straps to fall free of each other.
Disconnect the Harness Connection Carabiner from the upper to lower section of the harness and then disconnect the leg
strap buckles. Hold the harness with one shoulder strap in each hand to check for twisted straps. Straighten any twisted
straps so that they hang freely.
