4.2 Donning a Harness
1
Hold harness by
back D-ring. Shake
harness to allow all straps
to fall in place.
3
Slip straps
over shoulders
so D-ring is located
in middle of back
between shoulder
blades.
5
Connect chest strap
and position in mid-
chest area 6" (152mm)
to 8" (203mm) below the
trachea but not below the
sternum. If adjustable,
tighten chest strap to
keep shoulder straps taut.
Note: If the chest strap is
positioned too high, it may
move upward during a fall
arrest causing the user to
risk strangulation. If the
chest strap is positioned
too low, or not connected at all, the user will be at
risk of falling out of the harness during a fall.
7
After all webbing straps have been buckled,
readjust harness fit as needed so that
harness is snug but allows full range of movement.
Secure excess strap in elastic loop keepers (refer
to 5.2).
Helpful Hint: When not in use, Honeywell recommends hanging the harness by its back D-ring to help it
keep its shape and provide the worker with a starting point when next donning the harness.
