5.2 Use of Other Harness Features
Pull-Free Lanyard Rings
Harnesses are equipped with pull-free lanyard rings, also
known as lanyard parking attachments. When a connecting
device or lanyard is attached to a harness D-ring, but a lanyard
leg is not currently in use, the unused lanyard leg shall be
stored by connecting it to the lanyard parking attachment. The
lanyard parking attachment is generally located in the sternal
area to help reduce tripping and entanglement hazards.
CAUTION: Do not attach an unused lanyard leg to a work
positioning element or any other structural element on
the full-body harness unless deemed acceptable by the
competent person and manufacturer of the harness and
lanyard. This is especially important when using some
types of "Y" style or double-leg lanyards as some load
may be transmitted to the user through the unused leg if it
is not able to release from the harness.
Elastic Keepers and
Web Finials
All full-body harnesses shall include keepers or other compo-
nents which serve to control loose ends of webbing straps.
Miller harnesses are equipped with elastic keepers to store
the loose or excess webbing straps. Some harnesses are also
equipped with web finials on the ends of each webbing strap to
further help secure webbing straps in place. Simply hook the
clip of the web finial to the underlying harness strap.
CAUTION: Do not allow webbing straps to hang freely as
loose ends of straps can get caught in machinery or cause
accidental disengagement of an adjuster.
D-Ring Extension
Some specialty harnesses may be equipped with a dorsal
D-ring extension. This dorsal D-ring extension may be used as
the fall arrest attachment element in place of the dorsal D-ring.
When not in use, the D-ring extension shall be stored securely
in the elastic keeper designated.
CAUTION: Do not use dorsal D-ring and dorsal D-ring ex-
tension simultaneously for fall arrest; only one fall arrest
attachment element may be used at a given time.
Always account for the additional length of the D-ring
extension when calculating fall clearance (refer to 7.0).
