Using the Petzl Luna harness is easy. First, put the waistbelt around your waist and adjust it so it fits snugly but not too tight. Then, step into the leg loops and use the DOUBLEBACK buckles to adjust them according to your body type and the clothes you're wearing. Make sure all the buckles are properly fastened before you start climbing. When it comes to carrying your gear, use the front rigid loops for the items you'll need to access frequently, like carabiners. The rear loops are great for things you don't need to grab right away, or when you're carrying a backpack. For belay station gear, use the large center rear loop. And don't forget to use the rear accessory loop for your chalk bag or other small items. As for maintenance, after each use, check the harness for any signs of wear and tear, like frayed edges or broken buckles. If you notice any damage, stop using the harness immediately and get it replaced. Clean the harness with mild soap and water, and let it dry naturally. Avoid using harsh chemicals or putting it in the dryer. Always refer to the sizing information to ensure you have the right fit for maximum comfort and safety.
