Hard to explain,
Need to have slack in the chain, use the next link in line to help get it started.
Pivot the chain to where the clip will lay flat in position. Now straighten out the chain using the next link to push the clip on. Finish with a wedge, flat blade screwdriver will work, to take up the space between the links and push the clip home.
I could have put 5 together in the time it took to explain this.
