Feed folded end of strap through centre of first ratchet spindle as shown. Pull strap back so that folded end acts as
a hook. Feed other end of strap through centre of second ratchet spindle and fold back through lever as shown.
Operate this ratchet to tighten. Remove any slack on the strap with the first ratchet. Tighten strap by operating both
ratchets alternately ensuring that strap stays horizontal around chimney. For final tightening, position ratchet handle
in open position as shown and push with the palm of the hand rather than pulling from the closed position. Fold levers
flat when finished. If the strap needs to be loosened for re-positioning, the ratchets may be released by pulling back
the spring loaded release levers in the handles.
