Figure 1. Tow Bar and Safety Chain Installation
If a new safety chain is required use P/N 13363.
For a new connector link use P/N 01004.
CAUTION — Tow With Safety Chain
NEVER! tow the mixer with the safety chain removed.
The safety chain is intended to prevent complete
separation of the mixer from the towing vehicle in the
event of a tow bar failure.
CAUTION — Drum Safety When Towing
DO NOT tow the mixer unless the mixing drum is
completely empty. ALWAYS make sure the drum lock
lever (Figure 24) is in the verticle position (manual dump
mixers only).
SAFETY CHAIN CONNECTION
2. Route the safety chain through the holes just above
the tow bar, located on each side of the mixer stand.
Loop the chain together and place under the tow bar.
Secure the loop with the connector link.
3. Extend the safety chain along the length of the tow
bar, looping it through the tow bar's connector link.
Remove any excess chain slack.
4. Connect the free end of (clevis safety hook) the safety
chain to the towing vehicle. Remember it is critical that
the length of the chain be properly adjusted, to prevent
the draw bar and the front of the mixer stand from
dropping to the the ground (contact) in the event the
draw bar becomes disconnected from the towing
vehicle.
