Take the strap around the circumference of the borehole
lining or headworks and pass it through the ratchet slot.
Pull tightly to remove slack (see picture).
3.
Operate ratchet arm backwards and forwards until the
strap is fully tightened.
4.
Check that the clamping strap is securely attached by
trying to lift the PowerPack vertically.

6.
Ensure the tube clamp is positioned over the centre of the
borehole.
