PRECAUTIONS WHEN TOWING
Always use the correct towing equipment and towing method. Any mistake in the selection of the wire rope or towing
bar or in the method of towing a disabled machine may lead to serious personal injury or death.
For towing, see "TOWING THE MACHINE (PAGE 3-147)".
Always confirm that the wire rope or drawbar used for towing has ample strength for the weight of the machine
being towed.
Never use a wire rope which has cut strands (A), reduced
diameter (B), or kinks (C). There is danger that the rope may
break during the towing operation.
Always wear leather gloves when handling wire rope.
Never tow a machine on a slope.
During the towing operation, never stand between the towing
machine and the machine being towed.
