Intended Use
The Safeguard Net is intended to be used in or on any vehicle transporting
cargo from one place to another. It provides safety for drivers, passengers
and others on roadways and highway.
The Safeguard Net can be easily applied to any vehicle exterior or interior;
truck or trailer bed, cabin interior, boat or aircraft and exterior cargo rack
systems.
The Safeguard Net is designed to contain most loads if the vehicle is in a
collision, where small and large items could be dislodged. It reduces cargo
related accidents, driver liability, unnecessary risk and potential lawsuits.
The Safeguard Net helps to protect our environment by not allowing items to
escape during high winds or evasive maneuvers.

WARNING
OVERLOADING
Webbing restraint systems should not be overloaded, by using mechanical aids such as
levers or bars (cheater bars) unless they are designed for use with the webbing restraint
system.
STABILITY OF LOAD
Care should be taken to ensure that the stability of the load is independent of the
webbing restraint system and that the release of the webbing restraint system will not
cause the load to shift, thus endangering personnel. If necessary, attach more straps for
further support to the load before releasing the tensioning device in order to prevent
accidental falling.
LIMIT OF TWIST
Webbing restraint systems should not be used when knotted, and twisting of the
webbing is prohibited; however, a half turn is allowable to prevent vibration and flapping.
PROTECTION
The webbing restraint system should be protected against friction, abrasion and damage
from loads with sharp edges, use protective sleeves, blankets or corner protectors.

Webbing restraint systems should be withdrawn from service and replaced or returned
to the manufacturer for repair if they show the following signs of damage:
(A) Webbings Tears, cuts, nicks and abrasions in load-bearing fibres and retaining
