it’s important
to use the right
size and type
of tire chain.
check your
operator’s manual
to determine what
to use.
in most cases, this
information is found
on the additional
authorization list
(aal).
you can also eyeball
fm 21-305,
manual
for the wheeled
vehicle driver,
for an
explanation on how to
install tire chains.
use this chart
to order tire
chain assemblies
for the specified
wheeled vehicle…
note that for the m35a3,
tire size 14.5r20xl, there
is no nsn assigned for the
tire chain.
you can get those
chains, part number
s05sv, only through
pewag, the vendor.
to order, call
(800) 526-3924, fax
(630) 323-2292, or
email…
if your vehicle
isn’t
listed in the first chart, get the chains
you need using this chart for common tire sizes…
have your supply
clerk check fsc 2500
for other chains not
listed here.

although tire chains
are designed to fit
snugly, you should
still allow room
for some creep.
also, tighten the
chains by hand,
instead of using
tools.
this helps
prevent over-
tightening that
can gouge tires.
if the chains are
too loose
after
you tighten them
by hand, use
tire
straps
to snug
down the tire chains.
here’s some
guidance for
selecting
straps…
