Got a new 6 ft wide by 5 ft long chain harrow and hooked up to the tractor to test. It was getting real dark so I had limited time and the farm is 150 miles away so I just had a few minutes to try it, I noticed that when I made a sort of tight turn but not extremely tight and the hooks that hold it to the pull bar that were on the inside of the turn came unhooked. This is a just a bar and harrow- not the type that mounts inside of a frame. Am I supposed the bend those hooks completely closed? also, my pull point from the tractor was with a chain around a trailer ball on the draw bar, so the chain slides some when making the turns, should I clamp that chains somehow to the hitch so it does not slide? Am seeking tips on this situation so I'll be better prepared when I go back this week.
