Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to properly set up your KINGMAX Moving Straps:

1. Put on the Shoulder Straps: Each person should wear one shoulder strap. Position the strap over your shoulders so that the 'X' shape is on your back and the metal buckles are hanging at your sides, near your waist. Ensure the soft protection pads are comfortably positioned.
2. Cross the Lifting Straps: Lay the two lifting straps on the floor in an 'X' pattern. The adjustable buckles should be facing upwards.
3. Position the Item: Carefully tilt the item you intend to move and slide the crossed lifting straps underneath it. Ensure the straps are centered and provide stable support for the item. For larger items, you may need to adjust the strap length using the buckles before lifting.
4. Connect the Lifting Straps: Each person connects the ends of the lifting straps to the metal buckles on their shoulder straps. Adjust the length of the lifting straps using the buckles to achieve a snug fit, ensuring the item is slightly elevated off the ground when both individuals stand upright.

Operating Instructions

Once the straps are properly set up, coordinate with your partner for a smooth lift:

• Synchronized Lift: Both individuals should bend at their knees, keeping their backs straight, and then stand up simultaneously. This action will lift the item using leg strength, distributing the weight evenly and reducing back strain.
• Maintain Balance: Keep the item as level as possible during transport. Communicate with your partner to navigate obstacles and turns.
• Lowering the Item: To lower the item, both individuals should bend their knees simultaneously, maintaining a straight back, until the item is gently placed on the ground.

Safety Guidelines

• Always use with two people.
• Ensure straps are securely fastened and adjusted before lifting.
• Communicate clearly with your partner throughout the moving process.
• Lift with your legs, not your back, to prevent injury.
• Clear the path of any obstacles before moving.
• Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 850 lbs.
• Exercise caution on stairs or uneven surfaces.

Maintenance and Storage

• Inspect straps for any signs of wear, tears, or damage before each use. Do not use damaged straps.
• Clean straps with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
• Store the straps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prolong their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

• Item feels too heavy: Ensure both partners are lifting simultaneously and using proper leg-lifting technique. Adjust strap length to optimize leverage. Do not attempt to lift items exceeding the 850 lbs capacity.
• Straps slipping: Verify that the adjustable buckles are securely tightened. Ensure the lifting straps are positioned correctly and centrally under the item.
• Discomfort during use: Check that shoulder pads are correctly positioned. Adjust strap length to ensure the weight is distributed comfortably across your shoulders and not digging into your arms.
