How do you get the strap back through the block for use with second child?

I would push something thru the block first and attach the belt to it with duct tape then carefully pull it back thru. You might have to enlarge the slit a little bit but I don't think that would hurt it or keep it from working properly. I didn't have to add one back so it's just a guess. Good luck.

Sorry but i would use it as personal device or u risking yr kids squirt around in one and accident to happen. Its not that expensive and much safer. And to actually answer: dont know, never done it. Sorry

Sure, DD and I did this for a loooong time. Nice when you are outside, no one really notices. So, to do this, loosen up both shoulder/arm straps to the max, that way you can carry your babe lower (boob height). Then loosen a little the back strap, just to give you two some room to wiggle.Gosh I miss my ergo, I gave away to a dear friend in another country because those are not available there. I bought another one recently (for my spanking brand new son) and I got a fake from Amazon... That suck, but customer service was awesome and refunded me. Now on my way to my local store.Good luck!

I couldn't figure it out, so I just use without the straps! Let me know if you get an answer that would help us both.

I've found if I tighten from the back and then pull the strap no problem but it is impossible to tighten from the strap itself

It is weird and not well designed. A loop would be better.I cross my straps, like Im tying a shoelace at the start, then attach the straps to each other's velcro. Works decent.

Its not hard. Slip the thin part of the strap into the bottom or top hole and push it through leaving an open loop. Thread the thick part through the loop, pull tight and you are all set.Good LuckKenWebmasterAbout Facts Net

Ours is long gone, but had the same problem. Have no answer, just keep putting it back on. I guess you can try to glue it. That thing was a life saver. Plop the kid in and you can get some things done. Both kids loved it, especially when starting to walk.

There is a middle strap that thier legs go through. My wife got this exact one and our 5 month old loves to sit and play while she cooks in the kitchen.

Britax marathon 70 I cannot adjust the STRAPS (make looser) on the baby seat. we are no longer able to connect the straps to the red "buckleet" in the center. I have found the latch at the top of the seat--but it only slides the seat up and down. PLEASE HELP!

Hello.First thing you have to check is the direction of the strap in the metal device. You can start by pulling from one side and another to be sure you've the right direction. If you have it right then you can make a small knot to the strap and then it wont pass from the metal device.

Slip your arm through the loop made with the velcro strap. Once in place it can be made tighter.

You are right....you have to hold the end of the strap that is a very skinny loop. Hold the two sides of that loop together and push the pointy end of the loop into one side of the opening and pull out the other side. (It goes under the little "bridge" that is across the opening.)Then open the skinny loop enough to feed the thicker loop end through it. Pull tight and you are done. Good luck. :-)

I had problems getting the wrist strap 'threaded' into the opening, its a "royal pain" for old hands like mine! But I asked my adult son to help, and he was able to get it threaded through the opening and attached for me. Since he got it attached, I didn't try this, but the narrow point of needle-nose pliers might slide into the opening enough to help you pull the loop through, you then thread the strap through the loop to finish the job. Good luck! I would be leery of opening the the back of the device to get access to the opening. I don't have access to the device right now, I can't say for sure...

I don't generally loosen the straps each time I take him out. It was harder when he was a newborn because I didn't want to hurt him wrestling his limbs out of the harness! But now he is a few months old and actually moves his arm to help me get him out. If I have to tighten the harness while he is in it, I try and figure out how much I need to tighten it before I buckle it since it is really difficult to pull the strap to tighten it while it is buckled.

There is another D ring strap that it attaches to. They go one inside the other. It is really hard to get the stroller closed far enough to use the straps. We never use them.

There is a loop that goes into the strap opening. Open the loop so it looks like an O. Slip the bottom into the opening for the strap.Now grab the sides of the loop and push in until the opposite side of the O slips in. Shake the strap a little and it should not be in fully

My husband does not use the strap. He did confirm that there is only one place to attach. You could possibly call Chapin and get an answer. Sorry we could not be more help.
