 Diamond Installation Instructions

Arrange the diamond chains on the ground in an arc
in front of the wheel.

Slide the chains on the ground behind the
rear side of the wheel so its open ends are facing you.


Grasping the blue and yellow coded ends,
Hook together the end link fastener for the rear side. 

Hook the end link of the blue outer side chain to the red
connecting hook
.

Drape the diamond tire chains over the tire tread so the outer chain ring is aligned evenly around the side wall of the tire. Pass the tensioning chain through the track and eyelets and pull it as tight as possible. Attach the rubber tensioning hook under light tension on the outer blue side chain. After a few wheel revolutions stop, retighten the rubber tensioning chain and attach the tensioning hook to lock into position.


WARNING - RETIGHTEN SNOW TIRE CHAINS

After initial installation, move vehicle forward or backward at least 15 feet and retighten chains. Failure to do so may reduce chain life by 50%.
