8-Point Positioning Harness Adjustment
Use this guide to fit the harness to the occupant in order to optimize comfort and safety.
Always use shoulder pads to prevent buckles or
webbing from contacting the occupant's neck or
face.
To ensure proper placement of the chest harness,
make sure the chest strap lies in the middle of the
occupant's chest (armpit level).
The pelvic harness has a
cam lock which prevents the
waist strap from loosening to
maintain proper positioning
of the pelvis.
The pelvic harness has a single quick-release button
that unlocks both sides of the pelvic harness for
quick and easy access to the occupant. The quick-re-
lease button requires that you push directly in the
center of the buckle to release both waist straps at
the same time. This is a safety mechanism in case
the occupant attempts to release the buckle on their
own.
Adjust the length of the crotch strap to allow the
waist straps to lie across the occupant’s pelvis. This
will prevent the pelvic belt from lying across the lower
abdomen.
Note: To adjust waist strap length, first push up on
webbing to release the cam lock.
Lower Chest Straps can be easily adjusted here to
fit around bulky clothing like sweaters or coats.
