• Know the applied load on tail chain. In dragging
applications, the applied load may be greater or less than
its weight due to friction.
• During lifting/dragging with or without the load, personnel
should be alert for possible snagging.
• WORKING LOAD LIMIT (WLL) is the maximum load in
pounds which should ever be applied to winchline tail
chain when the chain is new or “in as new” condition, and
when the load is uniformly applied in direct tension to a
straight length of chain.
