I've had my skid steer off and on twice today, and it weighs a lot more than an M. I put one chain and binder on the back in a clevis and strap accross two points in the front holding the bucket and unit both down.
For an M I might be tempted to use two poings and two chains or straps in the back and one in the front if its tricycle. Not sure, they arent that heavy, just have a high center of gravity.
As to choice, I go with what I have. Normally I keep at least one chain/binder and two straps in each truck and a rack of 4 chains/binders and 6 straps in the shop. Givent the choice if I'm going over something metal I use chain, if I'm hooking into something metal or going over a soft I use a strap. But, the skid loader has smooth points on the front so straps are easier.
