ATTACHING THE SLING HARDWARE
Model No. 9070 - Strap Kit
Model No. 9071 - Chain Kit
The hardware used with the one-piece contour sling
includes four (4) metal support bars. The hardware
inserts into the pockets at the edge of the fabric.
The pocket that will hold the metal bar has an
opening in the center. The pocket is sewn closed on
one end and has an open-end with a strap on the
other.
NOTE: When the slings are laundered, remove
the four (4) metal support bars. They MUST be
replaced or the sling can not be used for lifting
purposes.
Inserting the Four (4) Metal Support Bars
into the Sling (FIGURES 1A and 1B)
NOTE: When inserting each metal bar into the
sling pocket, align the metal support bar in the
center of the strap (after it has been pulled down)
and push the metal support bar into the sling
pocket. The sling is sewn on both sides so the
center location is critical.
1. To insert the metal support bar, pull the strap
down allowing the bar to pass through the
opening in the sling pocket.
2. Push the metal support bar through until the
mounting hole clears the center opening of the
sling pocket.
3. Once the opposite end of the bar is inside the
sewn pocket, push the strap over the metal
support bar to prevent it from falling out.
NOTE: The hole in the metal bar should be in
the center of the pocket opening. This is where
the S-hook of the chain or strap will be attached.
