Connecting the Safety Chains to
the Tow Vehicle
1. Pull the safety chain through the slots in the
keyholes, so that the lengths on each side are
equal.
2. Cross both lengths of chain under the tow pole.
Note:
Crossing the chains decreases the
chances of the front of the machine dropping
to the ground if the hitch does not hold the
connection.

when towing the machine.
Note:
Stow the excess chain inside the bottom
of the front post by pushing it into the keyholes
and latching the appropriate links into the
keyhole slots.
