1. Retrieve the Suspension Relief Device (SRD) strap from the storage pouch on
harness.
2. Insert the looped end of SRD strap through either of the climbing belt loops
sewn on harness, near the waist belt. Take the opposite end of SRD strap and
feed it through the looped end and pull tight, forming a cinch knot. SEE fIG-
uRES 1A & 1B.
3. Take the opposite end of SRD strap and feed it through the other climbing belt
loop located on other side of harness. Once SRD strap is fed through climbing
belt loop, feed the SRD strap back through the adjustment slide. SEE fIGuRES
2A & 2B.
4. Adjust SRD strap length so it forms a large loop that is slightly shorter then the
length of your legs.
5. Put both feet in the loop and stand up to relieve the pressure from the harness
leg straps. SEE fIGuRES 3 & 4. If pressure is still felt on the leg straps while
standing on the Suspension Relief Device (SRD) strap, you must readjust the
length of the SRD strap to relieve pressure off the leg straps.
6. You can also adjust the SRD strap to a shorter length and place your knees on
the SRD strap to relieve the pressure from the harness leg straps. SEE fIGuRE 5.
Alternating between the standing method on feet and the kneeling method on
knees, comfort and better blood circulation are maintained.

WARNING
IN CASE OF A FALL…
DO NOT PANIC! This Full Body Harness (Fall Arrest System) is designed
to prevent a fall to the ground. It will suspend you until you are able to
return to your treestand or until help arrives. Using the included Sus-
pension Relief Device (SRD) will help to maintain circulation in the legs
and help mitigate the effects of hanging suspended with your weight
resting on the leg straps of the Full Body Harness. The effects of pro-
longed suspension without using the Suspension Relief Device may
result in unconsciousness and death may occur.
