Using this Klein Tools positioning strap is easy. First, adjust the strap to the right length according to your work distance from the pole. The drop-forged, single tongue adjustment buckle makes it simple to get the perfect fit. Then, attach the elongated snap hook to the pole or other anchorage point. You can wear thick gloves while doing this as the hook is designed for easy use. When working, make sure you can reach your work area at arm's length. Check the red wear indicator regularly. If it shows significant wear, it's time to replace the strap. To maintain the strap, keep it clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to sharp objects or chemicals that could damage the Klein-Kord fabric. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. Also, always follow the safety standards like 29 CFR 1910.268, 29 CFR 1910.269, and 29 CFR 1926.954 to ensure safe use.
