Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Identify secure, rated anchor points on both the load and the transport vehicle.
- Attach the 13mm Eye Sling Hook to the load's anchor point, ensuring the safety catch is engaged.
- Connect the chain to the transport vehicle's anchor point. Ensure the chain is not twisted and has adequate length.
- Operate the ratchet mechanism to tension the chain until the load is firmly secured. Avoid over-tensioning, which could damage the load or anchor points.
Compatibility:
This loadbinder is designed to work with standard rated towing or lashing points. Ensure that any anchor points used have a Minimum Breaking Strain (MBS) equal to or exceeding that of the loadbinder (46000LBS). It is most compatible with heavy machinery, vehicles, steel plates, and other bulky items where extreme security is paramount.
Care:
- Regularly inspect the chain, hook, and ratchet mechanism for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion.
- Clean the loadbinder with a damp cloth after use, especially if exposed to dirt or salt.
- Store in a dry location when not in use to prevent rust.
- Lubricate the ratchet mechanism periodically to ensure smooth operation.
