1.1.2 Safety towing chain
The safety towing chain prevents separation between the towed vehicle and
the towing vehicle, if the towing device breaks. Install the safety towing chain
to the eye bracket on the drawbar (Figure 4, page 1‑4), attach the hook of
the safety towing chain to the tractor, and shorten the length of the chain in
such a way, that the drawbar cannot touch the ground in case the towing
device breaks.
When the towing device breaks and no safety towing chain
is installed then the towed vehicle becomes a dangerous
projectile.
