First, thread the ratchet fastener by feeding one end of the strap through the take-up spool.

Then, continue pulling the strap to remove unnecessary slack.

Once the slack has been reasonably removed, begin ratcheting the fastener up and down until the strap is suitably tight.

To release tension on the strap, slightly lift the fastener up and press the release lever. Then, pull the strap out of the take-up spool.
