A safety harness to restrain the operator of an earthmoving vehicle. The harness includes a pelvis belt connected to respective shoulder belts, each end of the pelvis belt and the shoulder belts are connected to belt retractors lockable by means responsive to both belt speed and the inclination of a vehicle. The vehicle inclination response of each retractor is similar, so that they act simultaneously, and a device is provided for adjusting the vehicle inclination response independently of the belt speed response to give the operator freedom of movement with safety restraint. The device may be coupled by cables to respective levers for locking the retractors, disabling the vehicle inclination response or for making the vehicle inclination response effective or by a double-acting solenoid having an armature for achieving the same effect.
