FIXATION TOOLS
Use only CE-approved lashing belts (ratchet straps).
The lashing belts (ratchet straps) must be of type LC
2000 daN and Stf 350 daN.
The lashing belt set has two separate belts, the fixed
belt and the adjusting belt.
Fixing The Lashing Belts
1. Fix the hook of the fixed belt (4) to an eye on the
shipping vehicle. Open the ratchet handle (3) on
the fixed belt. Raise and lower the ratchet handle
(3) till the slot (1) is visible and accessible (as
shown in the figure).
2. Fix the hook of the adjusting belt (5) to an eye on
the unit. Pass the open end of the adjusting belt (6)
through the slot (1) from the bottom to the top.
3. Pull out the open end (6) such that a loop is
formed. The open end (6) must be pulled till there
is no slack in the adjusting belt.
4. Raise and lower the ratchet handle (3) till the force
required to add tension to the belt becomes too
great.
5. Push the ratchet handle (3) down to lock the belts
in place.
Removing the Lashing belts
1. Open the ratchet handle (3).
2. Pull the ratchet locking tool (2) towards the grip of
the ratchet handle (3) to free the tension on the
adjusting belt.
3. Pull out the open end of the adjusting belt (6) from
the slot (1).
4. Unhook the fixed and adjusting belts from the
eyes where they had been fitted.
