Operation
NOTE: The tow hooks must be removed to operate the tilt-away
bumper.
Before moving the towed vehicle, check for adequate road
clearance of vehicle components.
International® Truck
recommends unloading the towed vehicle prior to towing to
reduce any abnormal loads to the vehicle components resulting
from the towing procedures.
Before towing, be sure to fully
release the parking brake. The spring actuated type parking
brake can be released by recharging the air system with at
least 64 psi (441 kPa) of air. If brake system will not retain air
pressure, then the spring brakes must be held in the released
position (caged) manually. See Parking Brakes.
Tow Hooks
Two removable front tow hooks are optional on International®
ProStar
®
+ Series models. The tow hooks are inserted directly
into the front suspension bracket when in use, and can be
conveniently stored in the cab when not in use.
Tow hooks
provide a convenient attachment point from which to recover
the vehicle in emergency situations.

NOTE: The optional tow hooks are stored in a bracket attached
to the rear side of the seat bases on day cab models and in a
plastic case under the bunk on sleeper models.
NOTE: Do not leave tow hooks in receivers when not in use.
Insert the tow hooks through the front bumper and into the
receivers (tow hooks must have the point of hooks vertical while
inserting into receiver).
Push on each tow hook and rotate
outward 90° to secure the hooks in the locked position. The
point of each tow hook is pointed outboard on the truck to
prevent damage to the bumper during towing.
