chain hook ends to the side chains," says Tom Clark, Lone Pine, Calif.
Attach the new safety

Have a regular
chain hook welded to the back of both the loader bucket and digging bucket to be used for lifting up to 3,000 pounds with chain (tops of the bucket, that is).
Run the
chain hook across and not into the link, so the hook doesn't damage the link.
