Safety Chains

Refer to Figure 1-12:

When towing implements on the highway, use a safety chain with tensile strength equal to or greater than the gross weight of the implement to be towed by the tractor. This will control the implement in the event the hitch pin is lost. After attaching the safety chain (#4), make a trial run by driving the tractor to the right and to the left for a short distance to check the safety chain adjustment. If neces- sary, re-adjust to eliminate a tight or loose chain.

See (ASAE S338.2) for proper connection between tractor and implement.

Check Chains

Check chains are used to control cutting height and allow mower to be lowered to the same preset cutting height ef-

fortlessly. Install lower end of check chain (#1) to inner hitch ear as shown in Figure 1-13, using bolts (#2), lock washers (#3) and nuts (#4). Tighten securely. Install chain lugs (#5) on either side of the tractor top link mount using pin (not supplied)

(1” Dia. pin for Category II and 1 1/4” for Category III). Cut- ting height is then set by placing proper chain link in key slot (#5).

NOTE: For additional safety in transport, raise cut- ter as high as possible, and shorten check chains to prevent inadvertent falling in transport.
