| Hooking & Unhooking | 6 |
| VIDEO: Once he has his team in position, with the tongue between them, Donn loops his lines and puts them over the hamess where they can be reached quickly. | 8 |
| VIDEO: On a D-ring harness, the front side straps carry the weight of the front of the tongue, running from the neck yoke to the "D" ring. The photo on the left shows the strap before it is tightened. The strap running from the collar to the neck yoke is designed to keep the side strap in place, but here it is sharing the weight of the pole. The photo on the right shows the side strap tightened to take up the weight of the pole so the other strap becomes slack. Donn will loosen these side straps when unhooking before doing anything else, to reduce the tension throughout the hitch, making it easier to unhook the traces. | 12 |
