f the traction batteries are damaged, there is a risk of thermal or chemical reaction.
The electric motors can produce electricity when moving
the truck with the rear drive tires on the ground.
This remains a potential source of electric shock even
when the high voltage system is disabled.
Before towing the truck, it is mandatory to disconnect
the drive to the wheels. The drive to the wheels is disabled
by either uncoupling the propeller shaft (1) from the driven
axle (2) or by removing the axle shafts (3).
