[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 5692, member: 307"] The minimum were are allowed here is 3. You can't just loop a chain through the tie down ring it has to be hooked on the machine, so the machine can't slide sideways on the chain. Also the fron chains must to hooked to the frame od the loader then pass up over the attachment to secure it down to the trailer. I generally use 4 shorter 5/16 grd 70 chains as opposed to 2 longer ones. Hook the rear ones pull the loader forward until they are tight, then run 2 front chains over the bucket and down to the tie down on the front. Pull the front one tight with beartraps and bungee the handles shut Chains in any direction must have a minimum working load limit (WLL) of %50 of the load I still need to put something on the backhoe bucket to tie the boom down Ken [/QUOTE]
