INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Chain
Use a safety chain to help control towed machinery
should it separate from the tractor drawbar.
• Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or greater
than the gross weight of towed machinery, in
accordance with ASAE S338.2 specifications. If two
or more machines are pulled in tandem, a larger
chain may be required. Chain capacity must be
greater that the total weight of all towed implements.
• A second chain should be used between each
implement.
• Attach the chain to the tractor drawbar support or
specified anchor location. Never attach the chain to
an intermediate support. Allow only enough slack in
the chain to permit turning. The distance from hitch
pin to attachment point or intermediate support point
should not exceed 9 inches. If the distance from the
drawbar pin to either the front or rear chain
attachment point exceeds 9 inches, intermediate
chain support is required.
• Replace chain if any links or end fittings are broken,
stretched or damaged.
• Do not use a safety chain for towing.
