NOTE:

 

 Make sure to consult the operator’s manual of the towing vehicle

        CAUTION!   

Do not attempt to back up while using this Tow Bar.  If the 

towed vehicle is allowed to turn off the straight path while backing up, the towed 

vehicle could jackknife, causing severe damage to the towed vehicle and to the 

towing vehicle.  Even if the towed vehicle does not jackknife, backing up may 

damage the Tow Bar and towed vehicle, and the towed vehicle will not be able to 

be controlled properly.

12. 

Disengage the parking brake of the vehicle to be towed.  Set the transmission to 

the neutral position.  The towed vehicle must have the steering locked with the 

wheels in a straight forward position. As the wheels can not steer, the vehicle 

will resist turning.  

If the towed vehicle is not properly prepared for towing, 

property damage or severe personal injury may result.

When towing the vehicle over long distances stop and check the tightness of all 

connections,
