This is how it works

Before securing the load can begin, lashing equipment must always be visually inspected for any defects. Always check how to secure the load, whether the means are suitable and whether the maximum load is not exceeded. It is important that securing the load is done in all directions. The tension chains ensure that the load remains in place, and the load tensioners tension the chains. Make sure that you never load the hook on the point, this way you prevent defects in the lashing equipment.
