Everyone can mount snow chains.

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Snow chains

Mounting snow chains has always been a nightmare for everyone, especially for women. In this video, a friendly youtuber shows us that mounting chains is possible, if you know how to do it: the first thing is that there are two chains and four wheels. So, where do we mount them? On the drive wheels: if the car is front-wheel drive, on the front wheels, if it is rear-wheel drive, on the rear wheels. And if it is all-wheel drive? We need to check the manual to understand which axle has the most power. Lay the chain inside the wheel - it must not be tangled - then take the end of the cable, lift it over the top of the wheel and hook it. Then hook the flat hook to the side chain link, and bring the cable inside the wheel. Pass the handle through the locking device, tighten the tension chain well and hook it inside the self-locking devices. Drive a hundred meters and stop to check that the chains are in place, and the job is done.
