So clear. So simple. So easy to understand, with no distractions or background music - just perfect. All instructional videos should be done this way. Thank you for relieving years of frustration!!
Make sure the ratchet mechanism is completely open and locked in the open position, then just keep yanking on the strap until it loosens. If it is jammed up, you have to give it pretty hard yanks rather than a steady pull on the strap.
@@Thehowtochannelinc yeah was trying it might need to take the rachet apart like screws on the side so the strap will come off the bolt then screw it back on I guess first time using the strap but had it for 10 years.....
▪️ Your commentary makes me want to create a 55 minute long video on how to use a ratchet strap. I will include chickens, tambourines, young ladies walking around in bikinis, and a dozen other things that have nothing to do with ratchet straps. 🟥
What a masterpiece of a tutorial. If every YT dyi were like this, we would have already cured cancer, solved world hunger, and contacted other universes. THANK YOU!
Totally just sent this to my wife because i am not there to do it for her 😅 its short and tells you precisely what to do. Hell, it probably took me longer to type this on my phone than it took to watch the explanation 😊
You forgot to mention that it's necessary to tap it twice when finished and say "that's not going anywhere" But seriously, this was exactly what I needed, thanks for the clear directions
Thanks, that was very clear and consise. I rarely use these and so everytime I go to use them, I always get them stuck somehow. I think this time I finally understand what I've been doing wrong!
OMG is that simple Me and 3 employees were messing with mine at Lowe's home improvement for 30 minutes and just could not figure it out I ended up not using it in using rope LOL.
You probably just have a different looking handle. It should work the same way. If not, send me a picture of the ratchet strap. I would be happy to help you out. thehowtochannelinc@gmail.com
You can have the ratchet mechanism open when you feed the strap through, but it is easier to do when the ratchet mechanism is closed and out of the way. Thanks for the question.
I find it easier to thread the strap when the slot is in the vertical position and the ratchet mechanism is out of the way, but there is nothing wrong with your method as long as the strap is threaded properly. Thanks for the comment.

@@Thehowtochannelinc I got a strap that is stuck how do I unloosen the strap if the handle to release don't work like jam up on the rachet.....
Make sure the ratchet mechanism is completely open and locked in the open position, then just keep yanking on the strap until it loosens. If it is jammed up, you have to give it pretty hard yanks rather than a steady pull on the strap.
Once the ratchet is in the fully open position, you have to release the small lever to lock it in the open position.

The ratchet that I have does not have a handle like that is it the same for the one I have
You probably just have a different looking handle. It should work the same way. If not, send me a picture of the ratchet strap. I would be happy to help you out.

Good class thanks

Perfect
Thanks for the comment.
Why is it some videos tell you to open the ratchet and feed it through from the back to the front?
You can have the ratchet mechanism open when you feed the strap through, but it is easier to do when the ratchet mechanism is closed and out of the way.
Thanks for the question.
I was taught thread the ratchet in a horizontal position but i guess horizontal works two
I find it easier to thread the strap when the slot is in the vertical position and the ratchet mechanism is out of the way, but there is nothing wrong with your method as long as the strap is threaded properly. Thanks for the comment.
▪️
You said horizontal twice. I command you to edit your comment.
🟥
Leave some slack in the line, Should do 2 full rotations with the strap, prevents slippage.
You are correct. When you take up the slack, you should not pull the strap tight. Thanks for the comment.
You made very simple and clear! Thank you!
Thanks for watching.
