SNAP-LOC STRAPS
Straps tend to get destroyed faster than most other components.
Here are some ways to help prevent that.
1. Make sure nothing touches the E-Fitting release lever as this may
cause strap to come loose.
2. E-Straps with Cam are quick to use and less prone to scratching cargo
and hold very snug.
3. E-Straps with Ratchet can hold cargo very tight but do not overtighten
or damage may occur to anchor points.
4. After periods of use the Ratchet mechanism may not spin well. Apply
a very small amount of WD-40 lubricant just on the mechanical metal
and avoid lubricant contact with the surface.
5. Do not expose straps to sharp edges, acids, chemicals, vibrations and
things that may cause damage to fabric webbing.
6. Secure left over strap end to keep it from getting caught on wheels
and other objects especially when in motion.
7. Replace worn out or damaged straps. Visit www.snaploc.com
