Connecting Green Pin Tycan Lashing Chain directly into hooks (components) where the width/clevis is
more than required maximum clevis width is not acceptable. Doing so can cause the layers to spread apart,
which in the utmost consequence could have a negative effect on the strength of the chain. Also make sure
that the hook is not hooked in between the layers of the Green Pin Tycan link.

Loadbinders and fittings must be regularly inspected in accordance with the safety standards and regulations
given in the country of use. This is required because the products in use may be affected by wear, misuse,
overloading etc. which may lead to deformation and alteration of the material structure. Inspection should
take place at least every six months and more frequently when the loadbinders, lashing chain and/or fittings 7
are used in severe operating conditions. Regularly lubricate all moving parts of a loadbinder to extend
product life and reduce wear.
