Securing loads is no place for compromising which might catch up with you in
next to no time. Wherever loads must be secured, the handy, self-retracting
ratchet tie down is of tremendous use. This tie down can be used just like any
ordinary tie down, but you stay clear of all the hassle connected to loops of
unused strap, threading the strap into the ratchet and the rather awkward storage.
Persons and load are not put into any danger by flying loops of free belt. During
Storage the belt stays clean, rolled up for easy deployment, and protected from
oil, grease and ultraviolet rays.
Please familiarize yourself with the proper usage of the device by reading and
following each chapter of this manual, in the order presented. Keep these
operating instructions for further reference.
This operating instruction contains important details for handling the device.
Please pass it on along with the unit if it is handed over to a third party!
Please read all safety instructions!
These instructions will make it easier for you to handle the device and help
prevent misunderstandings and possible damage or injury.
Please note the following safety notes to avoid malfunctions,
damage or physical injury:
Do not leave packaging material in the range of children. Plastic bags etc. may
become a dangerous toy for children.
This ratchet tied down set is only intended to tie down loads. Do not knot the
belt.

If the belt is worn or ripped, do not continue using the belt. The belt has to be
replaced with a new belt.
Do not exceed the maximum load of 180 daN. Please note that due to wind
accelerating and lateral forces may occur when fastening the load on a
vehicle.

to hold the load.
