Tire chains and Simplicity Quick Tach weights are rec-
ommended when installing this attachment on your trac-
tor. Quick Tach weights are an easy way to improve trac-
tion and stability making your dozer more efficient.

can be added in 50 lb. increments (maximum of 300 lbs).
To purchase tire chains, Quick Tach weights, or wheel
weights, see you Simplicity Dealer.

For operation on slopes greater than 15% (8.5°), Quick
Tach Weights, tire chains, and wheel weights are recom-
mended. Never operate on slopes greater than 30%
