OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
If these instructions are not observed, the result may be personal injury or
damage to the vehicle or the load. Never load the strap over the permitted
lashing force specified on the label.
- Before using, select the tensioning strap according to the intended method of lashing, the required lashing force, and the surface of the load and check this (see labelling sticker).
- When tie-down lashing, it is recommended to ensure that the necessary pre-tensioning forces can be applied in a controlled manner.
- Make sure that the vehicle parts that the load is secured to are suitable for the job and offer sufficient stability.
- Remember that additional acceleration and lateral forces will be generated by the wind.
- Tensioning straps may not be knotted.
- Caution – When the road curves, or the vehicle brakes, the straps may yield. (Carry out brake testing) Protect objects with large surfaces from wind loads.
- These straps are not suitable for lifting and carrying loads.
- Permitted lashing force: 250 daN.
- Do not tension the strap over sharp corners or edges.
- Lashing straps may not be twisted and the full width must make contact.
- No loads may be placed on top of the tensioning strap.
- The strap may not be positioned up against a hot surface.
- The tensioning strap may only be used between temperatures of -40°C and +120°C.
- Always use 2 straps, either crossed over or in parallel.
- The tip of the lashing hook may not be loaded unless it is a specialist hook designed specifically for this use.
- To prevent a lashing hook from becoming loose and unsecured in a lashing point on the load area, it should be placed from the inside out.
- When using polyamide or polyester tensioning straps, contaminations may be removed using ordinary solvents.
- The tensioning strap must be allowed to dry fully. When using ordinary solvents, the applicable regulations are to be observed (e.g. data sheet for chlorinated hydrocarbon ZH 1/194)
Tensioning straps with ratchet
- Never position the hook and manual ratchet at an edge.
- Never lengthen the tensioning lever of the manual ratchet to achieve greater forces when this is not expressly permitted.
- To ensure it is securely positioned, 1.5 turns of the strap should be applied to the ratchet.
- Pre-tension the strap by hand so that not more than 3 turns of the strap must be applied to the manual ratchet to lash the load.
Fixture
- Wrap the strap carefully around the transportation load and guide the loose end of the strap through the slot (1).
- The strap is tensioned by moving the ratchet handle (3) back and forth. (See Figures A, B and C)
- The transportation load is secured by bringing the ratchet handle (3) to the home position, Figure A.
- To open the strap, the ratchet locking mechanism (2) is pulled up and the ratchet handle (3) is pushed forward (Figure D). Now pull the strap out of the slot (1).
STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
