WARNING:
Never use a clevis to clevis type

Safety Chain Requirements:
• Verify that the chain has a load rating equal
to or greater than the Gross Vehicle weight.
• Allow no more slack in the chain than
necessary for articulation.
• Attach the chain to the towing hitch
assembly. Do NOT use an intermediate
support as a primary method of
attachment.
• Verify that the hitch of the towing vehicle
is rated for the gross weight of the towed
machine.
• The implement may not exceed 1.5 times
the towing vehicle weight.
• Replace the safety chain if one or more
links or end fittings are broken, stretched or
otherwise damaged or deformed.
