Monkey Grip Ratchet Tie Downs Don't Let Go! 

• Monkey Grip Ratchet Tie Down Ratchet Systems are a must have addition to owning any trailer, ute or transporting vehicle. Designed with large lashing capacities, they are perfect for travel and securing heavy duty cargo.  

• Webbing tie downs are now widely used in the transport industry. Webbing Tie Downs are light-weight, easy to handle and easy to use. Webbing lashings are more elastic than chains therefore they retain more tension & cause less damage to cargo or paintwork.

• Avoid fines and safely tie down any heavy cargo your hauling! Fines of up to $5,000 for individuals or $25,000 for business may apply. (Depending on the State or Territory) 

Features

• The ratchet mechanism handles & S-Hooks on these Monkey Grip Ratchet Tie-Downs have a durable rubber coating. This makes using the ratchet mechanism super easy on the hand whilst providing a ergonomic grip. The rubber coating also increases the grip strength of the S-Hooks whilst preventing scratching.

How To Use Ratchet Style Mechanism Tie Downs

Tensioning  

1. Place the long length of webbing over the load and connect the fitting to a solid anchor point.
2. Insert the free end of the strap through the slot in the ratchet spindle. Pull until the slack is removed.
3. Releasing a little slack, now connect the fixed end strap fitting to the second solid anchor point around and connect back to the tie off loop if provided. Ensure the ratchet handle faces outwards. Make sure there are no twists and that the strap is flat over the load.
4. Pull up the slack again and pump the ratchet handle to work the ratchet so there are 2 to 4 layers of webbing around the ratchet spindle until the desired tension is set. Do not allow too many layers of the webbing around the reel as this may jam the ratchet. (Note: Refer to release tension instructions if needing to adjust.)
5. Take care not to over-tighten the strap as this could also damage the load.
6. Push the handle fully down to lock, check that the ratchet mechanism is locked, check no sharp objects are going to damage the fibre strap. Check that the load is stable under the strap and there will be no vibration, rub or flapping. Use protective sleeves to protect the fibre webbing from edges or rough surfaces.

CHECK TIE DOWNS REGULARLY WHEN IN USE DURING THE JOURNEY.

Releasing Tension

1. Pull back the handle to the open position.
2. With 1 hand, pull the release lever. The release mechanism pulls approximately 10mm towards the handle.
3. Using the free hand, pull the webbing out of the ratchet spindle until all the webbing is removed.
4. Let the release mechanism go. 

Monkey Grip Safety Information

WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED LASHING CAPACITY (Shown in kilograms (KG) on the front of each pack)

Key Information 

• Selection & Use: Consideration should be given to the required lashing capacity (LC), taking into account the mode of use & nature of the load to be secured. The lashings should be suitably pre-tensioned and regularly checked during the journey.

• Material: This strap is made from Polyester (PES) and is NOT resistant to chemical attack. Effects of chemicals may increase with rising temperature casing the restraint to fail. If there is any contact / contamination from chemical products, a web lashing should be removed from service and disposed of.

• Operating Temperatures: The webbing restraint system complying with the standard is suitable for use in the following temperature range; (minus) - 40°C to 100°C. These ranges may vary in a chemical environment. Changes in environment temperature during transport may affect the force in the webbing. The tension force should be checked after entering warm areas.

• Protection & Limit of Twist: The webbing restraint system should be protected against friction, abrasion and damage from loads with edge radius less than twice the webbing material thickness, using protective sleeves or corner protectors. Webbing restraint should not be used when knotted,

• Storage & Maintenance: If the webbing strap becomes saturated in use, dry in a shaded area prior to storing. It is advisable to lubricate the ratchet mechanism with a small mount of lubricant. When not in use, store in a dry location. 

Meanings relating to a webbing restraint system:

• Lashing Capacity (LC): Commonly referred to as LC, the lashing capacity is half of the minimum breaking strength of the system which is designed to sustain in use in straight pull expressed in kilograms (kg or kgs) rather than kilogram force. 

• Fixed End Length (Lgf): This is the webbing end with tensioning device, a fixed end length

• Adjustable End Length (Lgl): This is the length of webbing without the tensioning device, an adjustable end length.

• Hook & Keeper / S Hook / Carabiner Hook: This refers to the end fittings used on the restraint system.
