STEP 4.

Once you have reached your desired height, insert the tree belt through

the  loop  of  the  tether  (Fig.  5). Then,  carefully  wrap  the  tree  belt around  the  tree
at  a  height  that  allows  just  enough  slack  for  you  to  sit comfortably  in  your  stand.
Keeping  the  tether  as  short  as  possible  limits the  distance  you  will  travel,  in  the
unlikely  event  you  shall  experience  a fall. To secure the tree belt, insert the free
end up through the slot in the buckle closest to opposite end of the tree belt, then
cross over the sliding mechanism and back down through opposite slot. Pull on tree
belt to secure and test to make sure sliding mechanism engages, creating secure tree
belt placement (Fig. 6, 7, 8).

WARNING!

It is very important to complete this Step of the assembly. An improperly

secured buckle

may cause full-body fall arrest harness failure resulting in serious

injury or death! If there is not enough strap available to complete this step,

DO

NOT USE THIS FULL-BODY FALL ARREST HARNESS!
