The Husqvarna Balance XT brush cutter safety harness distributes the load across a large area. This gives excellent weight distribution between the shoulders, the shoulders & chest, & the hip & shoulders. In addition, the Husqvarna Balance XT Harness has many other features for added comfort. Wide, padded & body-hugging straps make the harness comfortable to wear & reduces stress on the upper body & shoulders. A wide & padded hip belt helps to reduce strain on the hips. Body shaped backplate & adjustable chestplate for optimal support. Shoulder straps follow the movements of the shoulders for enhanced weight distribution & comfort. The adjustable chestplate is in a lower position which transfers weight from the shoulders to the hips & reduces pressure over the chest, making it ideal for women
