tion. Refer to figure 9 and follow steps
below:
1. Position the notched end of the traction
kit tool over the hook on the chain guide
bracket.
2. Position tool so that the notched edges are
facing forward and the chain mount
bracket fits inside the notches.
3. Apply forward pressure on the upper end
of the traction kit tool. This will enable
you to extend traction springs to attach
lift chains to deck.
