Step 5. Adjust shoulder straps to a snug fit by pulling excess
strap through the parachute buckles on each side of the
harness. Left and right sides of shoulder straps should be
adjusted to the same length and the chest strap should
be centered on your lower chest, 6 in. (15 cm) down from
shoulder. The front D-ring on the vest style harness is
moved up or down by adjusting the shoulder straps and
leg straps. Center the back D-ring between your shoulder
blades. Note: On ExoFit XP models, the back (dorsal)
D-ring can be repositioned up or down as needed for a
correct fit. Adjust leg straps to a snug fit. At least 3 in.
(8 cm) of webbing must extend past the buckle on the leg
straps. Adjust the waist belt (if present).
B. EXOFIT CROSS-OVER STYLE FULL BODY HARNESS:
Your harness incorporates loops for a removable waist
belt. The belt can be installed through the two loops in
the harness located in the lower back shoulder straps, see
Figure 12. The belt will pass through the harness just below
the padded area. The hip pad, if used, is secured to the
belt by passing the belt through the hip pad loops. Don the
ExoFit Cross-Over style full body harness by following these
steps (see Figures 13 and 14):
Step 1. Locate the back D-ring held in position by the D-ring pad;
lift up the harness and hold by this D-ring. Ensure the
straps are not twisted.
Step 2.
Grasp the shoulder straps between the back and front
D-ring and slip the harness over your head from the left
side. Position the shoulder straps on top of your shoulders.
Ensure that the straps are not tangled and hang freely. The
D-ring will be positioned on your back when worn properly.
Step 3. Grasp the tab of the buckle located at your right hip and
insert it into the receptor of the quick connect buckle,
see Figure 13. You will hear a click when the tab engages
properly.
