- 1). Make a bight (loop) in the center of the webbing and tuck it into the front of your pants or bibs.
- 2). Reach behind you and take both ends of the webbing and pass them up behind the legs, keeping the loop in the front.
- 3). Pull the webbing ends around to the front and thread them under the bight (loop) sides, then pull them out from the body.
- 4). Pull the ends around the back and then around again, creating a double coil around the waist.
- 5). Continue to make wraps around the waist to take up the remaining slack on the webbing. When the slack is taken up, tie a square knot to the side of the harness.
- 6). Open the locking carabiner gate (a metal D-clip with a twisting lock) and slide it down and out from the waist straps.
- 7). Close the carabiner gate and twist the lock all the way tight. When it is tight, turn it back 1/4 turn to loosen and prevent it from seizing up.
