Chain Adjustment: Remove the bolt and washer that hold the safety chain to the ramp. 4.
Reinsert the bolt through a link that will shorten the chain so the loading ramp can not
be pulled backwards by the ATV’s rear tire. Make sure that the bolt is properly tightened
and the washer prevents the bolt from slipping through the chain link. Adjust the other
chain to equal length.
