3.1 Making Connections to
the Body Support and
Anchorage
Connecting to the Body Support
For general fall protection, connect the lanyard to
the back D-ring on the full-body harness. The shock
absorber portion of the lanyard should be connected to the body support (back D-ring). When using
a two-legged lanyard, connect only the center snap hook to the fall arrest attachment element.
Connecting to the Anchorage
Single leg lanyards:
Connect the other end of the lanyard to anchorage or anchorage connector.
Make sure connections are compatible in regards to size, strength, and shape.
Double leg lanyards:
Connect one of the free ends of the lanyard to anchorage or anchorage
connector. To retain 100% tie off, make sure at least one leg of the lanyard is connected at all times
to an anchorage or anchorage connector of compatible size, strength and shape.
Pass lanyard loop through
underside of D-ring.

Pull lanyard loop through D-
ring then pass opposite end of
lanyard through lanyard loop.

Pull the full length of the lanyard
through loop and tighten choke
by pulling on lanyard while
adjusting loop evenly over D-ring.
