|Place another strand over your thumb and close the hand with your index finger
'''Steps description''': start with making a loop on a rope (1) and pull the loop on your thumb (2). Then place another strand over your thumb (3) and close the hand with your index finger. Next, pull the carabiner exactly through the rope in the path of your thumb (4). Screw the safety-lock (5), inspect that everything is correct (6) and pull the break-strand (7) to test if the munter hitch flips into another munter as a final check.
