Lineman Fall Restraint

A method of using a lineman restraint comprising:

• fastening a lineman's belt around a body of a lineman;
• connecting a first lanyard connector to a lineman first belt connector;
• connecting a second lanyard connector to a lineman second belt connector;
• adjusting a closeable loop into a closed loop with a closeable loop connector to surround a telephone wood pole with the closed loop;
• positioning a first cam assembly to reside proximate a first strap first end and distal a first strap second end;
• positioning a second cam assembly along a second strap to adjust a first lanyard strap and a second lanyard strap to each extend a first length from a respective ring so that the lanyard straps and a second loop strap portion of a second strap are taut as the lineman leans back from the pole and a gap exists between the second loop strap portion and the pole;
• repositioning the first cam assembly along the length of the first strap towards the first strap second end until the second loop strap portion abuts up against and abuts about a perimeter surface of the pole abutting, eliminating the gap between the second loop strap portion and pole;
• positioning a portion of the second loop strap portion at a 6 o'clock first position;
• positioning a portion of the first loop strap portion at a 12 o'clock position relative to the 6 o'clock position;
• and
• positioning a first handle at a 9 o'clock position and the closeable loop connector at a 3 o'clock position relative to each other and relative to the 6 and 12 o'clock position.
