Stabilizing a vehicle

Step one

Extend leg to desired position. Place QuickStrut against the ve-
hicle. If necessary, take measures to secure the base plates from
slipping. Make sure the extended leg is locked in position. Loosen
strap enough to reach a hook in point at the bottom of the by use
of strap and strut established triangle.

Step two

Once the third side of the triangle is hooked in and secure, roll up
the extra strap using the hand crank of the strap keeper. When
all of the slack has been taken up, use the ratchet mechanism to
tighten and secure the stabilization strut in position.
Repeat Step Two for the second QuickStrut.

NOTE: QuickStrut can be deployed with the extending
leg either up or down.

Secure the stabilized/supported load before taking
down the rescue strut! Take down is accomplished by re-
leasing the eccentric shaft.

Recommendations

At times it may be necessary to create holes to keep the Quick-
Strut from slipping. Continuosly check the system to assure it has
not slipped or lost it’s tension. Keep the tension strap away from
hot surfaces. If this is unavoidable try to shield the strap. It is also
important to use cribbing when needed.
