Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you attach the lashing strap incorrectly
when securing the load, the following may
occur in the event of abrupt changes in direc-
tion, braking manoeuvres or an accident:
R
the lashing eyelets may become detached
or the lashing strap may tear if the permis-
sible load is exceeded
R
the load may not be restrained.
This may cause the load to slip, tip over or be
tossed about, striking vehicle occupants.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
Always tension the lashing straps in the
proper manner and only between the descri-
bed lashing eyelets. Always use lashing straps
designed specifically for the loads.
! Observe the notes regarding the maximum
load capacity of individual lashing points.
If you combine several lashing points to
secure a load, you must always observe the
maximum loading capacity of the weakest
lashing point.
