̄ Lashing points and carrier systems
You will find further information on the
lashing eyes in the "Operation" section
(

Lashing eyes
The maximum tensile load of the lashing
eyes is:
Load rails*
The maximum tensile load of the lashing
points in the load compartment is:
The specified values only apply to loads on
the load compartment floor if:
ț the load is secured to 2 lashing points
on the rail and
ț the distance to the next lashing point
used on the same rail is about 3 ft
(1 m).
Lashing points
! CAUTION
Observe the data on the maximum
load-bearing capacity of the individual
lashing points.
During full-braking applications, for ex-
ample, forces can be involved that are
much greater than the weight force of
the load.
Always use several lashing points in or-
der to distribute force absorption, and
make sure that the lashing points have
an equal load.
