• 

Any restraints which have been subjected to a crash situation from which the vehicle must 

be towed, should, in the interest of safety, be replaced. 

• 

Do not attempt to modify the equipment. For further advice on the installation and use of 

these restraints please contact BraunAbility. Please read this manual fully before use. 

• 

Avoid contact with corrosive liquids. Care should be taken to prevent contamination of the 

webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals. 

• 

The tie-down anchorages should be installed by an experienced technician/vehicle 

converter. Anchorages should not be installed into unsound materials such as corroded 

metal, wood, plastic and fibre glass panels, without additional and suitable reinforcement.

 

• 

The equipment has been tested in a configuration similar to that recommended by 

BraunAbility and any deviation from the recommendations here is the responsibility of the 

installer/user.
