How often have you been stuck in the bush, in a gravelpit or in a snowbank? Certainly more than once ! ! An effective tool under such circumstances is a pair of TRYGG TRACTOR antiskid chain. With them on the tires you feel safe. It is the real effective chain for tractor use, as it always has two "round the tire run- ning" and one cross teeth chain against the ground. Better traction is the result. All of the parts are made of special steel securing longer use. It is easy to mount. A worn or defective link can be replaced with the chain on the tire, as the chain is built up by sections, making the adjust- merits of the chain on the tire simple. Safe and strong special links and lock guaran- tees solid mounting.
