Optimal organization of tools AVAO harnesses are equipped with a dorsal attachment point for connecting a fall arrest system. In case of a fall, the weight of the user is automatically transferred to the leg loops to limit pressure points. This way, the user can remain suspended longer while waiting for rescue. Warning: Provisions for a rescue plan for each work site should always be made in advance in order to be prepared to rescue a victim as quickly as possible. ANCHORS ROPES PULLEYS ROPE CLAMPS Standard harness DESCENDERS Less traumatizing post-fall position AVAO harness MOBILE FALL ARRESTERS AVAO harnesses are equipped with six equipment loops: on the sides and at the rear of the waistbelt. They are shaped to facilitate clipping carabiners. Each harness also has retainers designed for the CARITOOL tool holder and the TOOLBAG pouch. CONNECTORS To facilitate donning the harness with the feet on the ground or with larger footwear, the AVAO harness is also available with new FAST automatic buckles on the leg loops. Once adjusted, these buckles open and close easily and quickly - the harness can be put on without adjusting all the buckles. VERTICALITY PACKS ACCESSORIES The AVAO harness may be adjusted at the waistbelt and shoulder straps. These adjustment points are equipped with self-locking DoubleBack buckles. These do not require re-threading to be locked: the harness adjusts easily in seconds. LANYARDS ENERGY ABSORBERS HELMETS Practical adjustment HARNESSES Ergonomics
