Adjust Implement Side-to-Side Sway

Make sure sway chains are tightened properly. When using certain implements, damage can occur to the sway link anchor point if not properly tightened.

Check implement operator’s manual procedure for adjusting sway links. When sway links have been properly adjusted, side sway of implement is controlled by position of links. A small amount of sway, 13—25 mm (1/2 - 1 in.), is needed for many implements.
