ABSTRACT:
A strap launcher (10) has a coil retainer (20) disposed at one end of a longitudinally-extending pole handle (16). Coil retainer (20) is configured to retain a coil (34a) of cargo strap (34) with the distal end of cargo strap (34) free and the other, proximal end (34b) of cargo strap (34) removably secured to the coil retainer (20). Strap launcher (10) is then used to launch the cargo strap (34) over a tall or stacked cargo (40) to dispose the distal end of cargo strap (34) on the far side of the cargo (40). The pole launcher (10) is then lowered to facilitate removal of the proximal end of the cargo strap (34) from the coil retainer (20). Both ends of cargo strap (34) are then secured to the truck bed in the known manner. Accessories such a corner handler (12), used to put corner protectors (42) in place, and a broom head (14), may be attached to the proximal end (16d) of pole handle (16).
