INSTRUCTIONS & CAUTIONS
Inspect Before Use
Always check your ratchet puller before use. Look for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. Ensure the hooks, straps, and ratchet mechanism are in good condition. If you spot any issues, don’t use the puller. A quick inspection can prevent accidents and ensure your tool works properly when you need it most.
Stay Within Load Limits
Never exceed the puller’s weight capacity. Overloading the tool can lead to equipment damage or even cause it to fail during operation. Always verify the weight of the load and make sure it’s within the specified limits listed by the manufacturer. Using the puller within its rated capacity ensures safety and reliability.
Secure Proper Hook Placement
Make sure both hooks are attached securely to stable, reliable anchor points. Improper placement can lead to the puller slipping or malfunctioning. Position the puller so it’s working in a straight line with minimal angles. This ensures maximum efficiency and safety when lifting or pulling loads.
Use Steady, Controlled Movements
Avoid rushing when using the ratchet puller. Operate it slowly and steadily to ensure smooth operation. Quick, forceful movements can jam the puller or cause damage to the load. Taking your time reduces the risk of accidents and ensures the puller lasts longer.

FAQ
What is a ratchet puller and how does it work?
A ratchet puller is a manual tool used for pulling or tightening loads. It works by using a chain or cable that winds around the load, and through the ratchet mechanism, it incrementally pulls the load with controlled force. This makes it ideal for applications like towing, lifting, or positioning heavy objects, where precision is key.
How do I maintain a ratchet puller?
-
Regular Inspections
Inspect your ratchet puller frequently for any signs of wear, damage, or fatigue. Check the mechanism, hooks, and chain to ensure everything is functioning properly. -
Clean After Each Use
Clean your puller after every use by removing dirt, dust, and debris. This prevents buildup that could hinder performance or cause damage. -
Lubricate Moving Parts
Apply lubricant to the moving parts, such as the ratchet mechanism and chain, to reduce friction and prevent rust. Regular lubrication ensures smooth operation. -
Proper Storage
Store your ratchet puller in a dry, secure location. Avoid exposure to moisture or extreme conditions that could lead to rusting or degradation of the tool’s components.
Can a ratchet puller be used for lifting?
Ratchet pullers are better suited for horizontal pulling, tensioning, or positioning loads rather than vertical lifting. While they can lift in some situations, they are not designed for heavy-duty vertical lifting tasks. If you need to lift heavy loads vertically, a winch or hoist would be a more appropriate choice.
How do I secure the ratchet puller to the load?
-
Attach the Chain or Cable
Use the provided hook or other fastening method to securely attach the chain or cable to the load. Ensure it’s tightly connected to avoid any slippage. -
Check Proper Alignment
Align the puller with the load to ensure it’s positioned correctly. Misalignment can cause uneven tension or strain, which may damage the equipment or load. -
Fasten to Stable Anchor Points
Secure the puller to stable, reliable anchor points. The anchor must be strong enough to withstand the force exerted during the pulling process. -
Double-Check the Setup
Before starting the pull, double-check all connections and alignments. Ensure everything is fastened properly to avoid accidents or damage during use.
How do I troubleshoot a ratchet puller that’s not working?
-
Inspect for Dirt or Debris
Check the mechanism for any dirt, dust, or debris that might be causing a jam. Clear any blockages to allow smooth operation. -
Lubricate the Moving Parts
Apply lubricant to the ratchet mechanism, chain, and other moving parts to reduce friction and ensure smooth function. -
Verify the Load Capacity
Confirm that the load you’re attempting to pull is within the ratchet puller’s rated capacity. Overloading can cause the tool to malfunction. -
Check for Tangled or Worn Chain/Cable
Inspect the chain or cable for any tangles, fraying, or wear. A damaged chain can prevent proper operation and may need to be replaced. -
Examine Components for Damage
If problems persist, check all puller components for signs of damage. Replace any worn-out or broken parts to restore functionality.
