Un-Commanded Release Due to Cable or Rope Type Straps
Cable or rope type straps must not be used directly on the
cargo hook load beam. Their braided eyes will work around
the end of the load beam and fall free. If cable or rope is
used they should first be attached to a correctly sized
primary ring. Only the primary ring should be in contact
with the cargo hook load beam. See example below.
