TOWING AND BEING TOWED
PRECAUTIONS FOR TOWING AND BEING TOWED
Always use the correct towing equipment and towing method. Any mistake in the selection of the wire rope or
drawbar or the method of towing a disabled machine and being towed may lead to serious personal injury or
death.
• Always confirm that the wire rope or drawbar used for towing has ample strength for the weight of the ma-
chine being towed.
• Never use the wire rope which has cut strands (A), re-
duced diameter (B), or kinks (C). There is a danger that
the rope may break during the towing operation.
• Always wear leather gloves when handling the wire rope.
• Never tow a machine on a slope.
• During the towing operation, never stand between the tow-
ing machine and the machine being towed.
