Slip the back support on.
Grasp each end of the
waistband. Stretch the right end
across the left and attach. The upper

bands loosely at your side.
Adjust straps for a comfortable
fit without tension.
Before you lift - grasp the outer
elastic bands and stretch
forward as far as possible.
Secure bands in comfortable
position.
