drawn machinery should it separate from the tractor drawbar.

▲ Use a chain with the strength

rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of the towed machinery.

▲ Attach the chain to the tractor

drawbar support or other speciﬁed anchor location. Allow only enough slack in the chain to permit turning.

▲ Do not use safety chain for
