Towing the Vehicle
Note: If at all possible, this vehicle should be placed on a carrier, rather than towing.
1. Attach a tow strap to the front axle beam.
2. Turn the start switch off and place the direction control switch in the center off position.
3. Use another driver to steer this vehicle while it is being towed. Be sure the driver uses the
brakes when the towing vehicle slows or stops.
•
Do not tow the vehicle faster than 5 m.p.h. or its maximum designed speed, whichever is
lower.
DO NOT tow a vehicle with a tow strap if the vehicle brakes are not working properly.
Using a strap to tow a vehicle with no brakes may result in loss of control of both vehicles
causing severe bodily injury and/or property damage.
WARNING
DO NOT tow the vehicle faster than 5 mph (8 kph) or its maximum designed speed,
whichever is lower.
Towing the vehicle faster than 5 mph may result in one or more of the following:
•
Loss of control of both vehicles causing severe bodily injury and/or property damage.
•
Damage to the towed vehicle drive train components and/or motor.
WARNING
Use extreme caution if towing a vehicle backwards and it is recommended ONLY to tow
a short distance until able to connect to the front tow bar and tow forwards.
If towed backwards, the towed vehicle may swing wide turning turns resulting in loss of
control of both vehicles causing severe bodily injury and/or property damage
