Selecting Your Ratchet Tie-Downs
 


Tie-Downs are the fastest, easiest and safest way to secure your cargo. 
Unlike rope and twine, they work without having to tie knots.
Ratchet Tie-downs apply the perfect amount of tension
to the load and lock to prevent accidental release.
 

BE SURE TO READ ALL WARNINGS BEFORE USING ANY KEEPER PRODUCT
 




4HOW TO CHOOSE A TIE-DOWN
Keeper recommends using a minimum of two (2) Tie-Downs to secure cargo and prevent load shift.  Each Tie-Down should have a Working Load Limit equal to or greater than the weight of your cargo.

4WORKING LOAD LIMIT
The maximum cargo weight a Tie-Down can safely handle and still accommodate unexpected forces caused by speed, road conditions or emergencies. The Industry Standard for Working Load Limit is 1/3 the Break-Strength of the Tie-Down assembly.

4OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
   FOR RATCHET TIE-DOWNS
1. Place webbing over load and attach
    hooks to solid anchor points.

2. Insert webbing through ratchet reel
    and pull until ALL slack is out of
    webbing. (Figure 1 -see chart below)

3. Pump ratchet handle to make webbing
    tight. Ratchet reel must have at least
    two layers of webbing wound around it.

    will jam ratchet. If too much web is piling
    on ratchet reel, start procedure over, first
    removing ALL slack from webbing over
    load.

    flat for transit. (Figure 2 - see chart)
