6.1.5 Safety chain
Pass the end link through the holes on the tongue
(1), then pass the hook through the end link. The
hook end should then be pulled forward through the
intermediate support (2) (if required) on the towing
machine's drawbar, and around the towing
machine's attaching point (3), hooking back to the
safety tow chain itself.
If the towing machine's attaching point is more than
9’’ (23 cm) from the draw pin (4), an intermediate
support (2) capable of withstanding one half the
required chain capacity is required. When in use the
safety tow chain should have no more slack than
necessary to permit proper articulation of the
implement.
The safety tow chain should be stored to prevent
damage from weather or improper use when not in
use with the machine. Check chain condition and
replace it with a new one if necessary.
The safety chain is intended to keep the
machine under control in the event of a loss
or failure of the hitching device.
Do not use the intermediate support as the
attaching point.
The safety tow chain must be replaced if any
one link is broken, stretched, or otherwise
damaged or deformed.
Safety chains are sold separately. Contact your
Kuhn dealer to purchase a safety chain for your
specific machine.
