Death / injury can occur from improper use or maintenance of tie-down equipment.
To avoid injury:
Inspect before use - remove from service if cracked, worn, or deformed.
Do not overload - load binders develop approximate working load with hand effort.
Do not use handle extender on load binder(s).
Do not use binder components for overhead lifting.
Load binding systems store energy which can release suddenly.
Operate only by hand from a firm standing position.
Operate handle cautiously.
Stay clear of handle path; handle may release suddenly.
Follow Operating Instructions.
Operating Instructions:
Follow DOT Federal Motor Carrier Safety regulations '392.9, '393.100, and '393.102. See Downloads section for copies of these regulations.
Inspect before use. Replace worn and deformed binders. Lubricate pivot and swivel points for optimum performance.
Do not operate with anyone on load.
Always apply binder in a straight line hook to hook manner without bending and such that handle goes down when securing load.
Tighten binders before moving and recheck frequently.
Do not exceed Working Load Limit shown on binder.
Do not use cheater bar or handle extension as such use can overload binder system and result in injury.
Release handle / load with extreme care. Make sure all personnel are clear. Lever binder handles can snap back over center. Use open palm under handle and push up.
Apply removable handle so that when force is applied, pawl engages gear with each turn.
