[AT] 430V mysteries

[Brian VanDragt]

There was a substitution in the parts catalog for that pin, who knows which one is drawn and which one Spencer has.  The first picture he sent I thought the S-hook was the triangular loop shown in the parts catalog and the head was formed from hammering on it.  Anyway I think the idea is correct, the top link pin and lynch pin are chained to the top link so they don't get lost and it doubles as a method of holding the link up when not in use.

The chain dangling from the center of the other chain should be hooked to the lynch pin in the end of the big pin.  Does anyone have an operators manual?  There might be a picture in there of what the bracket is for.
