suspension must be blocked to operating height

15. Release the park brake and remove the chocks
from the rear tires.
16. Use the stinger to pull the truck close to the back
of the tow truck for final towing position. See
Fig. 19.15 .

Rear Towing
Rear towing is not an option for the eCascadia.
The deck plates which protect the batteries interfere
with tying down the cab; if not tied down, wind lifts
the cab during rear towing and damages the air
springs and other components.
In addition, rear towing can damage the aerodynamic
front bumper.
Lifting and Lowering the
Vehicle
Raising a Vehicle with Air Suspension
1.
Park the vehicle on a level surface, set the
parking brakes, and shut down the vehicle.
Chock the tires.
WARNING
Remove the air from the suspension. Failure to
remove the air from the suspension may cause
the vehicle to move or shift on the jack stands as
air pressure drains from the system; this could
cause the vehicle to fall, resulting in damage to
the vehicle, serious injury, or death.
2. Exhaust all air from the air suspension.
WARNING
Do not use bottle jacks to raise the vehicle.
Always use floor jacks.
Bottle jacks can slip, allowing the vehicle to fall,
which could result in damage to the vehicle,
serious injury, or death.
NOTICE
NOTICE: Do not place jack stands under any of
the suspension components; doing so could
cause suspension component damage. Jack
stands can be placed at any point below the axle,
including the differential area.
Do not lift the vehicle from the batteries, eCarrier,
or frontbox. See
Fig. 19.17 for an illustration of
no lift areas.
IMPORTANT: Only lift unloaded vehicles and
vehicles disconnected from trailers.
3. Place a floor jack under the axle housing, the
clamp group, or the frame rail.
NOTICE
4. Raise the vehicle. Add additional jack stands
under the axles as needed to support the
vehicle.
