Installing the Carry Harness
Your unit comes with a hand strap and a carry handle, but you can also
install an optional carry harness for more versatility.
The carry harness is designed to be anchored in four points to
ensure that your unit is properly secured. Always attach the snap
hooks of the harness to the anchoring points specified in the
procedure hereafter. Attaching the harness anywhere else could
damage your unit or cause your unit to fall.
Note: Your unit must be equipped with a carry handle, a hand strap with a
D-shaped metal ring, and a special anchoring ring before installing the
harness.
To install the carry harness:
1. If the carry handle is not already installed on the top of your unit, install
it. For more information, refer to the installation notice that came with
the carry handle.
2. If the hand strap of your unit does not have a D-shaped metal ring,
replace the current strap. For more information, see the hand strap
replacement procedure on page 4.

3. If the anchoring ring is not already installed on your unit, install it as
follows.
3a. Position your unit so that you can see its left panel.
3b. Using a 3-mm hex key ("Allen" key), turn the grounding stud
counterclockwise until it is loose, and remove it.
3c. Position the anchoring metal plate so that the ring is on the right,
and then place the plate into the recess for the anchoring plate.
Hole for the
grounding stud
To ensure that the anchoring plate is fastened properly, always use
the grounding stud provided with the carry harness kit. Failure to
do so could cause the anchoring plate to detach from the unit, and
the unit to fall.
3d. Put the grounding stud provided with the carry harness kit into the
hole of the anchoring plate, and using a 3-mm hex key ("Allen"
key), turn it clockwise until the plate is secured in place.
4. Slide your arms through the harness so that its largest part rests on your
back.
5. Position your unit so that you can see its front panel.
