HOW TO USE RATCHET STRAPS?

The ratchet strap is absolutely a piece of extremely effective equipment to support many different weights and cargo sizes when used properly.

However, our specialists have seen many cases that lashing straps damage very quickly and seriously because of misuse. Worse still, it can cause road hazards. 

Here are the two main processes of using yours! 

1) HOW TO THREAD RATCHET STRAPS?

• Step 1: Insert the loose end of the strap into mandrel of the ratchet (fig.1)
• Step 2: Pull the strap through the slot of the mandrel, and make the strap tight by removing any slacks (fig. 2)
• Step 3: Move the ratchet handle back and forth to tighten the webbing (fig.3)
• Step 4: Lock the handle down after tightening (fig.4) 

2) HOW TO RELEASE RATCHET STRAPS?
