Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Lalizas Child Safety Harness

1. Unpack and Inspect the Harness:

   • Before first use, inspect the harness for any signs of damage or defects.
   • Familiarize yourself with all components, including straps, buckles, and attachment points.

2. Adjust the Harness Size:

   • Lay the harness out flat and loosen all adjustable straps.
   • Adjust the shoulder and waist straps to fit the child's size. The harness should be snug but not restrictive.

3. Putting on the Harness:

   • Have the child put their arms through the shoulder straps, as if putting on a vest.
   • Ensure the back of the harness is centered between the shoulder blades.

4. Secure the Waist Belt:

   • Fasten the waist belt using the buckle provided.
   • Tighten the belt so it's secure but comfortable, preventing the harness from slipping off.

5. Attach the Safety Line (Tether):

   • Locate the D-ring or designated attachment point on the front or back of the harness.
   • Connect the safety line's carabiner or clip to the D-ring.
   • Ensure the connection is secure and locked in place.

6. Secure the Other End of the Safety Line:

   • Attach the opposite end of the safety line to a secure point on the boat, such as a jackline or fixed anchor point.
   • Make sure the attachment point can withstand the force in case of a fall.

7. Final Checks:

   • Verify that all buckles are fastened and straps are properly adjusted.
   • Ensure the safety line allows enough movement for the child but is short enough to prevent reaching the railings or edge.

Safety Tips:

• Regular Inspections:

  • Before each use, check the harness and safety line for wear and tear.
  • Replace any damaged components immediately.

• Proper Supervision:

  • Even with the harness, always supervise children on deck.
  • Teach them basic safety rules about moving around the boat.

• Combine with a Life Jacket:

  • For maximum safety, the harness should be used in conjunction with a properly fitted life jacket.

• Emergency Release:

  • Ensure you know how to quickly release the harness in case of an emergency.

• Avoid Entanglement:

  • Keep the safety line free of knots and tangles.
  • Make sure it doesn't interfere with boat operations or other passengers.

Additional Considerations:

• Comfort:

  • Encourage the child to wear the harness by ensuring it's comfortable.
  • Allow them to get used to wearing it in calm conditions before sailing.

• Education:

  • Explain the importance of the harness to the child in an age-appropriate way.
  • Involve them in safety practices to build good habits.

By following these steps and precautions, you can effectively use the Lalizas Life-Link Child Safety Harness to enhance your child's safety while boating. Always refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific instructions and consult a professional if you have any doubts or questions.
