Coupling To The Tow Vehicle
receiving safety chains, contact the hitch manufacturer or installer. Do
NOT attach the safety chains to the gooseneck ball or its support; and
Rig the safety chains so they have sufficient slack to permit turning, but
not too much slack – the safety chains must keep the gooseneck on the
tow vehicle bed if the trailer uncouples.

Have sufficient slack to permit turning and to keep gooseneck
on bed of the tow vehicle, if the trailer comes loose.
