As a auto tool manufacturer, remind you that these gadgets may be inconspicuous, but they can play a significant role when necessary. See which one is missing?
(1) Foldable reflective warning signs
If there is a problem when driving, there is a safety stop triangle sign, which has certain protection for the owner. At present, the reflective warning signs on the market are mainly foldable, and they can be stored without occupying space.

(2) Nylon tow rope
No matter what class of car, driving on the road will inevitably encounter problems. If the car is broken on the road and cannot move forward,As long as there is no major problem with the steering or braking system, you can find a car and drag it back first, and then repair it. Pay attention to the length, width and maximum weight of the rope when buying.
The usage method is very simple:Tie one end of the tow rope to the front of the steel plate of the front axle of the front car, and tie the other end under the overhang of the rear car as close to the center of the vehicle as possible.
Location, the two cars should be separated by more than a few meters. It is best to tie a handkerchief in the middle of the trailer rope as the identification mark.
Precautions:When towing, an experienced driver should drive the car behind, because the car behind is difficult to control, and if it is slightly negligent or improperly operated, it may be possible to press the tow rope or not bend it, causing a chase accident. When the trailer starts, because it takes more weight of a car, the front car must add more fuel to increase the engine speed, and then slowly release the clutch pedal to tighten the rope before starting. Control your speed while driving, and dont drive at high speeds, even if the road conditions are good.
When the front car shifts, the trailer rope will loosen. At this time, the towed car should never step on the brakes. Otherwise, when the front car is refueling, the tow rope will suddenly tighten and be impacted. Only when the rope hits the ground can the brakes be gently pressed.
If the slope is long when going downhill, you can untie the rope and let the two cars slide down separately. This is very safe; if the slope is not long, you can use the rope to go downhill. The front car should not step on the brake easily, while the rear car can Press the brake lightly to keep the rope tight.
When you want to stop at the intersection, the front car first presses the brakes a few times to give a signal to the rear car, then the rear car applies the brakes, and both cars stop. When turning, you must pay attention to the big circle and tighten the rope as much as possible so that no danger occurs.
(3) Jumper Cables
Sometimes it is unavoidable that the car suddenly runs out of power or the battery is broken and cannot be started. At this time, a battery line is needed to use the car next to it to start, which is very effective.
Instructions:The two cars must not have any contact, and the electronic systems of both cars must have the same voltage. If the battery freezes, do not use this start cord. The positive pole clip (red) of the start wire is connected to the positive pole of the battery to be started. Connect the positive terminal clip to the positive terminal of the good battery. The negative clip (black) of the start cord is connected to the negative terminal of the good battery. The negative clip at the other end is connected to a fixed metal part on the car engine to be started, and the farther away from the battery, the better. Start the car and immediately remove the wire clamps in reverse order after starting.
Precautions:To check the marked voltages of the two batteries, make sure that the voltages of the two batteries are the same. Turn off all loads on the car, put the gear in neutral, apply the handbrake, and start the engine. Smoking is prohibited near vehicles. Also make sure that the battery wiring polarity is correct. During operation, the car must not come into contact with other vehicles.

Look at the power when buying, and choose the right inverter power supply.
Precautions:Do not use it for a long time when the engine of the car is stopped, otherwise the battery may be seriously fed, and the bottle will be discarded.
