Cleaning Instructions

WARNING!
Remove any surface contamination such as, but not limited to, concrete, stucco, roofing material,
etc. that could accelerate cutting or abrading of attached components.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death.
Clean the harness with a solution of water and mild laundry detergent. Dry hardware with a clean cloth and
hang harness to air dry. Do not speed dry with heat. Excessive accumulation of dirt, paint, or other foreign
matter may prevent proper function of the harness and, in severe cases, weaken the webbing. To clean
Race-FLEX Buckles and Quick Connect Buckles remove foreign material with a cotton swab.
ronments: fine particles can prevent proper function of the buckle. Dip the buckle in clean water to flush fine
particles. Remove excess water and allow to air dry. Questions concerning harness conditions and cleaning
should be directed to MSA.
