Straps
Please refer to specific use instructions of the straps for more
details.
pal-turn™ functions with flat coated textile straps.
The choice of the strap's length and type and its constitution
material is made according to:
§ the load: material, weight, circumference,
set-up and use conditions,
§
§ the respect of ½ sling angle (α) included between 0 and 45°
The straps are tailor-made, depending on the imperatives of each
use.
Instructions for use
The straps must not be used where there are traces of oil, water or any other liquid on the
polyurethane.
Users have to regularly check for the correct condition of straps: the textile strap must not be
damaged, the straps seams must be in good condition, the polyurethane covering must cover all the
length of the strap, the opening system for opening straps must not be damaged...
Do not apply degreasing products on the straps' polyurethane (deterioration risks).
When needed, use white vinegar to degrease the straps
Coated straps are more resistant to sharp edges, i.e. surfaces neither plane nor rounded.
However, straps do not resist to cutting edges (grind or protect any edge with radius below 2 mm).
Avoid passing over any hole or pin.
It is necessary to avoid any slipping of the load when passing over sharp edges.
Different models
Endless straps can be used for continuous rotation, on their whole length.
Those with connection buckle (usually used when access to the ends of the load is difficult) must be
particularly monitored when used.
The connection buckle must never go inside the pulley.
The connection buckle and the recovering area (sewing) must never be under the load.
When turning over a load by 360°, the length of the straps should allow for the rotation of the load
according to the desired angle without the connection buckle and the covering area (sewing) going
inside the pulleys or being under the load.
Furthermore, the connection buckle of each strap should be positioned in essentially the same way so
as not to have the rotation of the load limited in keeping with the above comments.
