7.11 TOWING THE VEHICLE _____________________________________________________
If the vehicle has a problem and can not drive to the service area, tow the vehicle at a slow speed for short distances.
To tow the Vehicle:
1. The vehicle has four tie down locations. Connect the tow-
line to one of the vehicle tie down locations.
2. Before you tow the vehicle, make sure the accessories are
lifted. If the accessories cannot be lifted, remove the
accessories from the vehicle.
3. An operator is needed to steer the vehicle and operate the
vehicle brakes.
4. Press the brake pedal, put the transmission in neutral and
disengage the parking brake.
5. Slowly drive the tow vehicle until the tow-line is pulled
tight.
6. When the vehicle is towed, try to keep the tow-line tight.
Be careful on slopes or when you turn the vehicle.
7. When the vehicle gets to the service area, engage the
parking brake and put the transmission in 1st gear.
To put the vehicle on a trailer:
Be careful when you load or unload the vehicle on the trailer. Fasten the vehicle to the trailer to prevent the vehicle to
move on the trailer.
If the trailer is moved on the highway, inflate the tires to the maximum pressure recorded on the tire before you fasten
the vehicle to the trailer. Decrease the tire pressure after the vehicle is removed from the trailer.
WARNING
When the vehicle is towed, to prevent injury or vehicle damage these guidelines must be followed.
• Never accelerate or stop the vehicle suddenly.
• Never change the direction of the vehicle quickly or make sharp turns on a slope.
• Never tow the vehicle at more than 5 mph (8 kph). When you tow a vehicle at an increased speed can cause
a loss of steering control of the vehicle(s).
• When you tow a vehicle, adjust your speed for weather and surface conditions.
