Step 4. Connecting and tightening the Slider Line
•
Make sure both ends of the line are secured at the correct heights.
•
With the ratchet handle facing down, feed the end of the main line through the ratchet axle slot.
Make sure line is not twisted or folded as this could weaken the ratchet and cause breakage or
damage to the line.
•
Pull the line tight through the ratchet axle slot so there is no slack in the webbing. The ratchet spool
can only hold about 2 feet of line,
so it’s necessary to pull th
e line as tight as possible before using
the ratchet. Do not overfill the ratchet spool or it can become jammed and unable to unwind.
•
Pull on ratchet release lever to unlock ratchet handle. Use ratchet handle to tighten further by
cranking the handle back and forth.
•
Keep ratcheting the line tighter until the line is as tight as you can make it (but do not exceed 100
pounds of force on the handle). When fully tightened, pull release lever to close and lock handle in
place. If ratchet handle is not locked closed, the line could unwind suddenly and cause injury.
