1. Attach the long strap hook to one of the anchors on the base of the lift.
2. Attach the ratcheting unit hook to a solid, non-moving part on the top of the load. You may use
one of the red strap loops provided to pass around your motorcycle or jet ski handle bar to
prevent paint scratches. Then hook the ratcheting unit to it.
3. Feed the free end of the long strap through the ratchet reel and pull it by hand until it tightens.
4. Tighten the strap by ratcheting the handle back and forth until load is well secured. There must
be a minimum of two full turns of strap around the reel.
5. To lock the ratchet, make sure to pull the handle until it points upwards.
6. To release, pull back the release bar on the ratcheting unit and fully open handle to a 180°
angle (pointing downwards).
7. Repeat this step on all four ends of the lift.
