In these days of cold, snow and frost, many drivers in safety clothing go to their garages of confidence with the intention of asking about how they should put the chains in their cars correctly. Now, that adverse weather conditions are the order of the day, forecasts put on alert even areas where snow is not at all usual. For this reason, it is important to be prepared and carry chains in the trunk to avoid any surprise last minute. Zeta Engine, from the hand of Rudi Motor Services, recommends you follow a few simple steps to place the chains in the car easily and safely.
First of all, you should park the vehicle on one side of the road in order not to hinder the movement of the road. Next, the members of the vehicle will have to put on the reflective vest and signal the area with the emergency triangle, a protocol essential to preserve the safety of all drivers.
From then on, the first thing to know is where to place the chains. As a rule, they will be placed on the driving wheels, so in the traction cars must be placed on the front wheels. In contrast, in propulsion, should be fixed on the rear wheels. Finally, in all-wheel drive 4x4s, they will have to be put on all four tires.
After these first steps, it is time to place them, remember to keep a yellow vest to be visible. First, stretch the chains well on the ground to check that no knot has formed. Next, place the chains on the tire, pull the steel cable behind the wheel and hook it. Then, keep pulling the cable, this time on the tread, and move the car a few inches to finish covering the rest of the wheel. In addition, finally, it connects the hooks with the tensionless and returns to move the car a few more meters to be sure that the chains have been well secured.
