Buckle Feeding Instructions
 | Step 1: Begin with the prongs of the buckle facing up and pointed to the right. Place the strap around the bundle going away from you starting at the bottom and then bring the strap back towards you on the top of the bundle. Make a loop in the end of the strap with the cut end on top. |
 | Step 2: Slide the loop from the bottom through the center hole of the buckle. |
 | Step 3: Slide the loop over the back prong leaving a tail of about 2 inches |
 | Step 4: Repeat the same process for the front prong starting with a loop on the roll end of the strap. |
 | Step 5: Slide the loop from the bottom through the center hole of the buckle. |
 | Step 6: Slide the loop over the front prong and manually pull out the slack before tensioning by holding the strap that goes around the bundle in a position that is closest to you and then pulling on the roll end of the strap. |
