A horse harness allows the horse to pull either a cart or carriages. To harness a horse first put the collar around the horses head or thestrap around the chest. Put the saddle and breeching around the horses body and fasten the crupper around the tail. Then place the bridle over your horses head and connect the reins. After everything is secured hook the horse up to a cart or carriage. Once you understand each piece of the harness and master the assembly process you can easily harness your horse and get driving Use a collar if your horse is pulling a heavy carriage. The collar is padded to help your horse pull heavy carts like passenger carriages. Gently put the collar over the top of the horses head. The collar should sit at the base of the horses neck where it meets their body.
Use astrap if you are driving a lighter cart. Thestrap is a wide leather band that fits around the horses chest. It is a good idea for this to be padded if possible. Bring thestrap in front of and around the horses chest. To hold thestrap in place attach the martingale to the girth and the neck strap over the horses withers. Most drivers connect the center of the neckstrap over withers to the top of the belly band of the harness. Fasten the buckle so the neckpiece sits securely and comfortably in the center of the horses chest.
Buckle the traces to the collar orstrap on both sides of the horse. With most light harnesses the traces are made onto thestrap itself. If not on the collar orstrap there is a leather strap and buckle used to attach the traces. Insert 1 end of the traces and fasten it with the buckle then attach the traces to the other side.
Place the saddle and breeching around the horses body. Put the saddle on your horse so sits just behind the withers base of the neck above the shoulders. Secure the saddle strap around the horse behind its front legs. Place the end with the breeching around the back end of your horse. Then gently pull the horses tail above the breeching.
Fasten the crupper around the horses tail. The crupper is a padded leather loop that goes around the horses tail to keep the saddle in place. Loop the crupper around the horses tail and fasten the buckle to secure it in place.
