THE
SAFETY
CHAIN
There are different safety chain requirements
by
the various states.
As
delivered by
your
dealer, your vehicle
is
equipped
with
chains
to
meet
SAE
standard requirements for maximum gross
trailer
weight. AIways have the safety chain (s) attached
when
towing.
Install
them
in
a
manner
so
they do not restrict sharp
turns
of the
tow vehicle-trailer combination, but
tight
enough so
they
do
not
drag
on
the road.
