GRADE 70 LOAD EQUIPMENT GRADE 70 LOADBINDERS PRECAUTIONS • Avoid injury – operate only by hand and always from a standing position • Lever type loadbinders generally store energy which is often rapidly released, causing the handle to rotate with substantial force • Always inspect loadbinders before use. Look for signs of wear, bending, cracks or gouges, and replace any damaged units • Use only the appropriate size and grade of chain with the loadbinder • Do not use handle extension devices, as they may overload the loadbinder and effectively weaken the lashing system • Make sure loadbinders are tight before moving. Stop and re-check tightness frequently • Never discard warning instructions. Keep them and share them with others using the loadbinder.
GRADE 70 SAFETY RELEASE LEVER The safety release lever makes this loadbinder safer than other lever style loadbinders on the market today. The loadbinder design allows the user to release the loadbinder tension without any of the recoil typical of a standard lever type loadbinder. The centre of the loadbinder rotates independently of the handle, allowing tension to be released smoothly and safely.
The handle of the BX600 moves freely to the beginning of the release point.
The body cam centre begins to rotate independently of the handle at this stage.
As the chain tension is released, the handle will remain almost in the same position.
