Use the built-in connector to EN 362 to connect the
shoulder straps in front to the textile ring provided
in the waist belt.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the connector is locked
properly!
5. This is how you put the harness on correctly:
�
With your legs, step through the waist belt and
the leg loops. Pull the harness up to waist height
and then tighten the waist belt by pulling on the
webbing ends.
�
Close the leg loops.
�
Put on the shoulder straps with cushions over
your head from behind. Use the built-in
connector to connect them to the textile ring
provided in the waist belt. Make sure that the
connector is locked properly!
�
Adjust leg loops, waist belt, and shoulder straps.
The harness should hug the wearer's body
lightly. The fall arrest eyelets (labeled "A") should
be at the height of the sternum, the suspension
eyelets should be in a central front position and
in lateral positions.
6. How to select an anchor point:
According to EN 795, the anchor point (anchor de-
vice) for personal protective equipment against falls
from a height must be able to withstand a force of
12 kN and meet the requirements specified in the
user’s guide of the fall protection system used. The
anchor point should always be located above the
user.
The connection between the harness and anchor
point must be suitable for the standard covering the
respective type of use and must have been certified
to it.

Fall arrest system (e.g., energy absorber to
EN 355, guided type fall arresters to EN 353-
1/2, retractable type fall arresters to EN 360)
�
Restraint system (e.g., lanyards to EN 354 or EN 358)
�
Work positioning system (e.g., lanyards to
EN 354 or EN 358)
�
Rope access system (e.g., rope adjustment
device to EN 12841, rope to EN 1891)
It is crucial to safety to select the position of the an-
chor point and the way how the work is done such
that the free fall and
the height of a fall are re-
stricted to a minimum.
It is crucial to safety to ensu-
re prior to any work assignment that there is enough
free space at the work site under the user (prevention
of an impact on the ground or on an obstacle).
Only a fall arrest harness may be used
as the
body holding device in a fall arrest system.
Lanyards must not be placed across sharp edges!
Pendulum motions during falls must be avoided
by selecting a suitable anchor point.
