Safety Tow Chain - Schulte FLX-1510 Operator's Manual

Safety Tow Chain

If the unit is to be towed on a public roadway, a
safety chain with tensile strength equal to or greater
than the gross weight of the cutter must be
connected between the tractor and cutter. This will
help control the implement in the event the tongue
becomes disconnected from the drawbar. Connect
the safety tow chain between the FLEX-ARM and
tractor. Fasten the large loop of the safety chain to
the hitch, using the 1" bolt, washer, and nut. Attach
the other end of the chain to tractor. Refer to your
tractor operator's manual for complete instructions
on attaching the tow chain to the tractor. After
connecting both ends of the safety chain, drive the
tractor to the right and left to check for proper chain
length. Adjust length as necessary and allow only
enough slack in the chain to make a maximum turn
in both directions.
