GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

•
Always follow the product instructions.
•
Persons intending to use the snatch strap should consider completing a nationally
recognised four wheel drive training course, or contact a four wheel drive club for
comprehensive advice on the proper selection and use of the strap.
•
Persons intending to use the strap must ensure that the strap is not damaged and is
in usable condition.
WARNING
•
The strap must not be used for lifting or conventional towing.
WARNING
•
Before attempting the vehicle recovery, passengers of the vehicle must :
•
(i) Exit the vehicle
•
(ii) Stand as far away from the vehicle as possible
•
(iii) Avoid standing in the path of the vehicles performing the recovery
•
Never exceed the Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) of a strap, or the Working
Load Limit (WLL) or Safe Working Load (SWL) of shackles.
•
The strap's strength and stretch are reduced when the strap is saturated with water
and can reduce the MBS by 20%.
•
An object such as a recovery damper, heavy bag or blanket must be draped over the
strap during use to reduce any unintentional rebound of the strap.
•
It is important to correctly attach the motor vehicle recovery strap to a motor vehicle.
•
A standard tow ball or vehicle tie-down point is not designed for this purpose and
may result in the strap or a vehicle component detaching from a motor vehicle and
striking and seriously injuring or killing a person. Only attach the strap to a vehicle
recovery point or device that is suitably rated for use with the strap.
•
Never connect two snatch straps with a bow shackle or metal object - if a snatch strap
broke in this situation the bow shackle/metal object could become a projectile and
cause serious damage, injury or death.
•
When using shackles always use approved rated shackles.
