Moving a Disabled Machine
Towing and Retrieval
Do not tow a machine unless there is no alternative.
Remember that further damage might be caused to the
machine by towing it. If at all possible repair the machine
where it stands. If the machine must be towed read the
following CAUTIONS and WARNINGS and use the
procedure given here.
!MCAUTION
Towing a machine too far or too fast can damage the
transmission. Do not tow the machine further than one
mile. Use a trailer for greater distances. When towing
do not travel faster than 15 mph (25 km/h).
Use a rigid draw-bar. If a towing chain must be used,
then use two towing vehicles. One towing vehicle
should be coupled to the front of the disabled
machine. The other towing vehicle should be coupled
to the rear of the disabled machine, to provide braking
power.
The towing vehicle(s) must have enough pulling and
braking power to move and stop the machine.
2-2-7-3-2
1 Engage the park brake.
2 Set the gear lever to neutral.
3 Set the Two/Four Wheel Drive to 2WD.
4 Prepare the machine for travel. See Preparing for
Road Travel.
If the engine cannot be run, the mast may have to be
hoisted into the transport position and secured. The
procedure for doing this will depend on the machine's
condition and its hydraulic circuits.
For this reason you should contact your JCB
Distributor for help and advice before attempting this
work.
5 Attach the drawbar to a suitable location.
6 The machine is now ready for towing. Make sure you
understand what the towing driver will be doing. Obey
his instructions and all relevant regulations.
Also note that if the engine cannot be started, the
effort required to steer the machine is greatly
increased.
Recovery Hitch
The recovery hitch is only suitable for occasional off
highway towing with a maximum pay load of 1 ton. It is not
approved as a permanent towing hitch. Make sure you will
be obeying all pertinent laws and regulations before
towing.
!MWARNING
Using the recovery hitch for towing may exceed the
capability of the recovery hitch. This could damage or
weaken the recovery hitch or pin which can result in
the trailer becoming detached from the machine.
