30 ft Tow Strap for Harvesters - 100,000 lbs MBS

To ensure safe and effective use of your Dawnerz tow strap, follow these essential safety practices:

• Check Load Capacity – Always use a tow strap with an adequate Minimum Break Strength (MBS) for the vehicle being recovered. (2-3 x GVW)
• Inspect Before Use – Check for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage before each use.
• Secure Connection Points – Attach the strap only to designated towing points, avoiding sharp edges that could cause fraying.
• Avoid Sudden Jerks – Apply force gradually to prevent excessive strain or potential failure.
• Stay Clear of the Strap – Keep all bystanders at a safe distance during towing or recovery operations.
• Do Not Use for Lifting – Tow straps are designed for pulling, not for lifting loads.
• Store Properly – Keep your tow strap clean and dry when not in use to maintain its performance and longevity.

Proper inspection and maintenance extend the lifespan of your tow strap and ensure reliable performance. Follow these best practices:

Inspection Checklist:

• Check for Cuts & Abrasions – Inspect the entire length of the strap for any visible damage.
• Examine the Eyes & Stitching – Ensure reinforced eyes remain intact and stitching is secure.
• Look for Fraying or Discoloration – Fraying or excessive wear indicates the strap may need replacement.
• Assess Material Stiffness – A stiff or brittle strap may have been exposed to excessive heat or chemicals.

Maintenance Tips:

• Clean After Use – Wash off mud, dirt, and debris with mild soap and warm water.
• Avoid Exposure to Direct Sunlight – Prolonged UV exposure can degrade polyester fibers.
• Store in a Cool, Dry Place – Keep straps away from moisture and chemicals when not in use.
• Avoid Sharp Edges – Using protective sleeves can help prevent cuts and damage from rough surfaces.

Maximize the efficiency and lifespan of your tow strap with these best practices:

• Use the Right Strap for the Job – Match the MBS rating to the vehicle weight to ensure safe towing and recovery.
• Ensure Proper Alignment – Keep the tow strap as straight as possible to avoid uneven tension.
• Choose the Right Connection Hardware – If needed, use soft shackles or steel shackles designed for towing applications.
• Communicate Clearly – Ensure all operators understand the recovery plan before applying force.
• Monitor for Signs of Wear – Regularly inspect the strap for damage to prevent unexpected failures.
• Replace When Necessary – A compromised tow strap should be retired and replaced to maintain safety.

Following these will ensure your Dawnerz tow strap provides long-lasting, reliable performance in demanding conditions.
