I have never used chains on a steel pole. I have on wooden poles.

unless those have banding slits cut in them, he may want to put some
mattresses on the ground to catch the radios when the bands tear.
That being said, assuming hes using the 3/4-1 inch bands and the style we
used to use, yes, you hammer the clamps. its kind of like kneading dough, you
have to roll them with the hammer. I havent used that tool in like 8 years
though

If he can post a quick video of what he is doing I'm sure we could
critique it. I haven't done it myself in a decade but all the gear I put up on
steel poles 10 years ago is still up and hasn't moved. Which of your brackets
is he installing? Only thing I can think is the band isn't slipping through
slots in the bracket and thus isn't getting tightened properly.

Mitch Koep is in the field attempting to installing one of my pole
mounts onto a steel monopole with stainless bands. I personally have never
used bands on a steel pole.
Any tips or pointers? Does he hammer the clip flat after bending the
strap? He is trying it down at the base before hanging a bunch of expensive
radios way up in the air and is having the strap slip.
This is fairly time sensitive. I am sure Mitch would welcome a call
if any of you have some experience with this. I suggested getting some rubber
to put under the mount to increase friction.
