400 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
TOWING PROCEDURE
General
WARNING
If a vehicle with air suspension is lifted
by the rear frame member, there is a
risk that the air springs will separate
from the spring plates. When towing
has been completed, DO NOT under
any circumstances use your hands to
reposition the air springs. There is a great
risk that your hand will be caught between
spring and plate causing personal injury.
WARNING
DO NOT tow a vehicle backwards when
equipped with roof air fairings. The
fairings act as an air scoop and may
break off. Failure to follow this warning
may lead to personal injury and vehicle
damage.
WARNING
Vehicles with air fairings are tall. Make
sure that the total height of the vehicle,
when it is raised up behind the wrecker,
does not exceed the maximum allowed
height for local underpasses. Failure
to follow this instruction may lead to
personal injury and vehicle damage.
CAUTION
Failure to disconnect the driveshaft,
remove the drive axle shaft(s) or lift the
drive wheels off the ground before towing
or pushing the vehicle, can cause serious
transmission damage.
