What happens here

The demonstrator shows how the 'Backup Tool System' is worn, with the kickstand arm designed to hang off a standard tool belt. To engage the kickstand, it is fitted securely into a dedicated mount on the chest plate. Once engaged, the kickstand can be elongated as needed to reach the ground. When the user kneels, the kickstand acts as a pivot point, distributing approximately 55% of the body's load off the knees and lower back.

Goal: Correctly attach and engage the kickstand for ergonomic support during tasks requiring kneeling.
