Threading the Kevlar® Strap Through the Angle Braces
The Kevlar® Ratchet Strap is what secures the four Angle Braces to the case of your
generator. It is threaded through and behind the Angle Brace center (Fig 1.11) circling
around the generator to feed into Ratchet Buckle for tightening.
h. Unwind your Kevlar® Strap, take the loose end and feed it through each Angle
Brace, ensuring to stay under the strap guides (Fig 1.11) and behind the center
section (Fig 1.11). While feeding the strap through each of the Angle Braces avoid
twisting the strap and be sure the grommets are facing toward the case.
Strap the Assembly to the Case
With the Kevlar® Strap fed through the four Angle
Braces you are now going to tighten the strap to
hold them in place.
i. Loosely place the four Angle Braces next to the
four corners of the generator with the strap
running through them and the Gator Grommet™
facing the case.
j. With the Ratchet open, feed the
loose end of the strap through the
center slot so that the strap is
coming towards the top of the
ratchet handle (Fig 1.12). Do this
until all the excess strap is through
the ratchet center. Ensure that the strap has not twisted.
k. Pull the Kevlar® Strap slack tight through the Ratchet Buckle center.
Maintaining tension on the Kevlar® Strap, position the Angle Braces
into the desired positions on the corners of the generator.
(Fig 1.13).

Note
Ensure the back of the ratchet is facing
the case, this ensures you can open and
close the ratchet handle without issue.
WARNING
Never mount the Kevlar Strap so that it blocks, or is in direct line of, the exhaust. The Kevlar
will not burn or snap but blocking the exhaust can damage the inverter generator.
