Lashing points and carrier systems

Lashing points
CAUTION
!
Observe the data on the maximum
load-bearing capacity of the individu-
al lashing points.
During full-braking applications, for
example, forces can be involved that
are much greater than the weight
force of the load.
Always use several lashing points in
order to distribute force absorption,
and make sure that the lashing
points have an equal load.
You will find further information on the
lashing eyes in the "Controls in detail"
section ( page 280).
