Step 2: Unbuckle chest and leg straps. If the harness have waist belt, unbuckle it too.

Step 4: Connect the chest strap and position in the mid chest area, then tighten shoulder straps.
Step 5: Pull the end of one leg strap between the legs and secure to the opposite end. Repeat this step with the other leg. If

buckles. After adjustment, the gap between the waist belt and the hip can be inserted into the fingers, which is the best fit at
this time.
