You may be using or have recently purchased cranked claw hooks for use as standalone diverter hooks, over-wheel straps or parts thereof primarily when transporting vehicles.
A cranked claw hook is designed to lift the strap away from the deck at an angle to route over the wheel/tyre combination.
When using products fitted with a cranked claw hook, ensure that the hook is used at the correct angle to the deck, otherwise it may be damaged or fail when in use. To prevent damage or premature failure of the hook, it must be fully located into the radius as shown below.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS HOOK IN ANY OTHER WAY APART FROM THE OPTION SHOWN. ENSURE THE TIP OF THE HOOK ISN'T LOADED UNDER THE DECK ON A HINGE OR BOX SECTION. IT MUST BE POSITIONED AS THE DIAGRAM ABOVE.
