In 1 minute, you’ll understand the right way to use these things.
The trick is the right angle and coming at it with the strap from the correct side. If you do that, it’s easy. Take your ratchet strap and make a 90 degree angle with it. Then grab your strap end (the end of the other strap) and feed it through the hole and back around and out that same hole again. Pull it taught. Then you can ratchet it down.
And to release, just pull the lever.
Easiest to just watch the little video.
The reason I made this little video is because actually before you use ratchet straps correctly, they seem confusing. Some people never learn how to use them, and go through their lives struggling with them each time. Not necessary, because they’re simple and it only takes a minute to learn how to use them.
I show a regular ratchet strap (with 2 parts, each having hooks at the end), as well as an “endless ratchet strap” which just has one part. Good to show them together because they both use the same type of ratchet, and seeing them both reinforces the learning.
