Troubleshooting

Lever is difficult to operate.

Ensure the chain is not excessively stretched or damaged. Check for any debris or obstructions within the lever mechanism. Verify that you are using the correct 13mm chain diameter.

Chain does not hold tension.

Confirm that the lever is fully engaged and locked in position. Check the chain for any kinks or damaged links that might prevent secure gripping. Ensure the chain is taut before applying final tension.

Visible rust or corrosion.

The yellow paint offers protection, but minor surface rust may appear over time. Clean the affected area and apply a suitable rust inhibitor or protective coating if necessary. Ensure the device is kept dry when not in use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy to operate, saving time during loading and unloading.
  • Built with strong, durable materials for long-term reliability.
  • Conforms to important safety standards for load securing.
  • Protective paint finish enhances lifespan and visibility.

Cons

  • Specific to 13mm chain diameter; not suitable for other sizes.
  • Requires sufficient chain length to operate effectively.
  • Heavy-duty nature may mean it's overkill for lighter loads.
  • Manual operation requires physical effort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The tension lever is designed for direct integration with 13mm lashing chains. Simply attach the lever mechanism to the chain and operate the lever to tighten the chain to the desired tension. Ensure there is enough chain length available for the lever to function effectively.

Compatibility: This model is specifically designed for use with 13mm diameter lashing chains. It is not compatible with chains of other diameters.

Care: To maintain performance and longevity, inspect the tension lever regularly for signs of wear or damage. Clean with a damp cloth as needed, avoiding abrasive materials. The yellow paint provides elemental protection, but prolonged exposure to harsh conditions without cleaning may eventually impact the material. Store in a dry place when not in use.
