Step 4. Harness and pads may be air dried or tumble dried on low
heat (not greater than 200° F (90° C).
Step 5. Replace the pads before using the harness. See Figure 18.
To replace the ExoFit XP Pads, lay out the harness as
shown and place the pads under the straps. Then wrap the
zippered
aps
over the

close the
snaps and
zippers.

between
the layers
of the seat
strap.
Step 6. The retrieval harness pads have openings for the shoulder
D-rings. See Figure 19. When replacing the pads, make
sure the D-rings are located on the shoulder straps so that
they protrude through the openings and are available for
connecting retrieval systems.
B. ARC FLASH FULL BODY HARNESS:
Step 1. Spot clean the ExoFit full body harness. Lay the webbing
on a at surface and clean each side using a mild bleach-
free detergent with a sponge or light brush, so as not to
damage or bulk up the laments. Rinse throroughly.
IMPORTANT: ASTM F887‑2004 rated harnesses should use a mild
bleach‑free detergent rather than soap; as soap may leave a residue
which could affect ame resistance.
Step 2. To thoroughly clean the ExoFit XP, remove the pads. See
Figure 17. Undo the snaps and zippers. The pads will fall
away from the harness straps.
Step 3. Harness and pads should be thoroughly air dried before
using. Do not dry in a mechanical dryer.
IMPORTANT: A wet harness will have reduced strength.
Step 4. See step 5 above.
Step 5. See step 6 above.
To replace the pads,
lay out the harness
as shown and place
the pads under the
straps then wrap
the zippered flaps
over the straps and
close the snaps and
zippers.
