Towing Procedure
1. Attach the tow bar/cable to the
front/rear frame tie-down points or the
tow hitch (Fig. 61 and Fig. 62) located
at the rear of the loader.
Important: Only use a tow bar or tow
cable of sufficient capacity.
2. Tow the unit slowly and with caution.
Do not tow continuously for longer
than three minutes at a time.
Important: Tow the machine with another
vehicle ONLY. Do not tow loads or other
vehicles with the machine.
Do not allow anyone near the tow bar or tow
cable while the loader is being towed. Use a
tow cable/tow bar with a capacity of at least three times greater than
the towing vehicle’s pulling power. Do not exceed 5 km/h (3 mph)
while towing, or damage to the hydraulic system could occur.

2. Tighten the bypass valve bolts to 70 Nm (52 lbf-ft).
Note: Do not over-torque the bypass valve bolts.

“Tilting the Platform Down” on page 108.
