This trailer is supplied with axel/ratchet straps. Below are written instructions for using these straps.
Position the Vehicle Properly:
Drive the vehicle onto the trailer, ensuring it is centered over the trailer axles for proper weight distribution.
Engage the parking brake and place the vehicle in park (or in gear for a manual transmission).
Inspect the Axle Straps:
Check the straps for any damage, such as fraying or cuts.
Ensure the D-rings or loops on the axle straps are intact and secure.
Locate the Anchor Points on the Vehicle:
Identify a solid part of the vehicle’s axle or frame to loop the straps around.
Avoid brake lines, wiring, or other sensitive components.
Wrap the Axle Strap Around the Axle:
Place the strap around the axle or approved anchor point.
Ensure the strap is flat and not twisted for maximum strength.
Attach the Strap to the Ratchet Hook:
Secure one end of the axle strap to the hook of the ratchet strap.
Connect the other end of the ratchet strap to the trailer’s anchor point, such as a D-ring or stake pocket.
Position the Ratchet Mechanism:
Place the ratchet mechanism in an accessible location, ensuring it is aligned with the strap for even tension.
Tighten the Strap:
Use the ratchet mechanism to tighten the strap until the vehicle is secure.
Avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the axle or straps.
Repeat for All Securing Points:
Use at least two axle straps (preferably four) to secure the front and rear of the vehicle.
Ensure all straps are evenly tightened for stability.
Perform a Final Check:
Inspect each strap to confirm they are secure and properly aligned.
Shake the vehicle slightly to ensure it is immobilized.
Secure Loose Strap Ends:
Tie off or tuck loose strap ends to prevent flapping during transit.
Stop periodically during transport to inspect and retighten straps as needed.
