TOWING AND HOISTING NOOGA-
This vehicle can only be towed from the front with convention-
al sling-type equipment and tow chain with grab hooks.

A lumber spacer (4” x 4” x 55” wood beam) should be placed
forward of under guard and under towing hook/shipping tie
down hook.
Then, attach J-hook to the lower arm.
A safety chain system must be used. This system must be
completely independent of the primary lifting and towing
attachment. Care must be taken in the installation of safety
chains to insure they do not cause damage to bumper, painted
surfaces or lights.
LIFT!NG-GROUND CLEARANCE
Towed vehicle should be raised until wheels are a minimum of
10 cm (4 in.) from the ground. Be sure there is adequate
ground clearance at the opposite end of the vehicle, especially
when towing over rough terrain or when crossing sharp rises
such as curbs. If necessary, ground clearance can be in-
creased by removing the wheels from the lifted end of the
disabled vehicle and carrying the lifted end closer to the
ground. A 20 cm (8 in.) ground clearance must be maintained
between brake drums and ground.

distances, provided the parking brake is released.

vehicle.
1. Remove exhaust tips and any other optional equipment,
that interface with the towing sling. Padding (heavy shop
towel or carpeting) should be placed between the towing
sling cross bar and any painted surfaces, and bumper
surfaces.
2. A safety chain system completely independent of the
primary lifting and towing attachment must be used.
3. Any loose or protruding parts of damaged vehicle such as
hoods, doors, fenders, trim, etc., should be secured prior
to moving the vehicle.
4. Operator should refrain from going under a vehicle unless
the vehicle is adequately supported by safety stands.
5. Never allow passengers to ride in a towed vehicle.
