2.4 FIre anD reScue - attacHInG tHe SHoulDer StrapS: After securing the Class II belt assembly of the Fire
and Rescue harness, the user may complete donning of the Class III harness by securing the shoulder straps. See Figure
6 for reference. To secure the shoulder straps:
1. Suspend the shoulder harness. The D-Ring and Yoke should be facing forward. Ensure all straps are not twisted. Place
the opening in the Yoke over your head and rest the straps on your shoulders.
2. Open the carabiner at the bottom of the Yoke. Insert the carabiner through the strap that holds the D-Ring on the
harness belt. Close the carabiner. The gate of the carabiner must not be inside the D-Ring loop.
3. Bring the strap on the right side of your back around to your right hip. Open the carabiner and insert it through the
red loop on the top of the belt. The carabiner gate must not be inside the belt loops.
4. Bring the strap on the left side of your back around to your left hip. Open the carabiner and insert it through the blue
loop on the top of the belt. The carabiner gate must not be inside the belt loops. Orient the carabiners as shown in the
figures. The carabiner gate must not be inside the belt loop.
5. Confirm that the front strap is secured by the carabiner and that the straps lie flat on your chest. Left and right sides
of the shoulder straps should be adjusted to the same length and the upper front D-ring should be centered on your
lower chest, facing outward and free to swivel up and down.
6. Confirm that the back straps are secured by the carabiners (a - blue strap end secured by carabiner to blue loop; B
- red strap end end secured by carabiner to red loop) and that the straps lie flat across your back. The D-Ring at the
center of the harness padding between your shoulders must be facing outward and free to swivel up and down. Adjust
shoulder straps to a snug fit. Before use, adjust the harness 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 again as necessary for a secure, comfortable fit.
