4.3 PRODUCT LIFE: The functional life of Delta Harnesses is determined by work conditions and maintenance. As long as the
product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service.
5.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICING, STORAGE
5.1 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS: Clean the Delta Full Body Harness as follows:
1. Spot clean the harness with water and a mild soap solution. Wipe off hardware with a clean, dry cloth.
;
Use a bleach-free detergent when washing the harness and pads. Fabric softener or dryer sheets SHOULD NOT be used when
laundering and drying the harness and pads.
2. Water temperature for wash and rinse must not exceed 160° F (70° C).
3. The harness and pads may be air dried or tumble dried on low heat not exceeding 200° F (93° C). An excessive
buildup of dirt, paint, etc., may prevent the full body harness from working properly, and in severe cases degrade the
webbing to a point where it weakens and should be removed from service.
;
More information on cleaning is available from 3M. If you have questions concerning the condition of your harness, or have any
doubt about putting it into service, contact 3M.
CLEANING FIRE RESISTANT PADDING:
• Remove pads from harness for laundering. Place the harness in the supplied laundry bag. The bag is designed to
prevent entanglement of the harness and to protect the washing machine from damage. Use of the laundry bag to
wash the pads is optional.
• Launder re resistant pads seperately from harness or other non-re resistant garments. Lint from other garments
may affect re reistance.
• Use a bleach-free detergent when washing both the harness and pads. Do not use soap; soap may leave a residue
which could affect re resistance.
• Do not use chlorine bleach. Bleach may weaken fabric and reduce product life.
• Oily or greasy stains may be pre-treated and washed in hot water 140° F (60° C max).
• Use delicate, permanent press, or cotton sturdy wash cycle with cold or warm water. Hot water can be used on
heavily soiled items as long as it does not exceed 140° F (60° C). Use extra rinse cycle to be sure all residual wash
chemicals are removed.
• Air dry or tumble dry using permanent press cycle and low heat. Drying temp should not exceed 200° F (93° C). To
minimize shrinkage, do not over dry.
5.2 AUTHORIZED SERVICE: Additional maintenance and servicing procedures must be completed by a factory authorized
service center. Authorization must be in writing. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.
5.3 STORAGE AND TRANSPORT: Store and transport the Delta Full Body Harness in a cool, dry, clean environment out of
direct sunlight. Avoid areas where chemical vapors may exist. Thoroughly inspect the harness after extended storage.
