Troubleshooting Tips

Chain Slippage

If the chains are slipping off the tire:

• Stop the vehicle and re-adjust the chains to ensure they are evenly distributed and tightly fitted on the tire.
• Check for wear or damage. If the chains are damaged, replace them before continuing your journey.

Difficulty Installing

If you're having trouble installing the chains:

• Ensure you are using the correct size for your tires. Refer to the application chart provided with the product.
• Make sure the chains are not twisted before attempting to fit them onto the tire.
• Try to keep the vehicle as still as possible during installation to prevent the chains from moving out of place.

Chains are too tight or too loose

If the chains do not fit properly:

• Double-check the tire size compatibility on the application chart.
