LIFTING LUGS
A TB 60 can be safely lifted. However, only a
trained qualified service technician should
perform lifting.
„
TOW KIT
D A N G E R
Improper towing can cause a TB 60 to break
away from the towing vehicle. A “runaway”
TB 60 can cause death or serious injury.
Do not tow a TB 60 faster than 10 mph (16
km/hr). A TB 60 can behave erratically above
10 mph (16 km/ hr).
Check with the tow vehicle manufacture or
manufacturer's literature to be sure the
towing vehicle can safely tow and stop a
20,700 pound (9,389 kg) TB 60 on the
steepest grade and type of surface you will
encounter. Remember, the TB 60 does not
have brakes when it is towed.
When you tow the TB 60 around a corner or a
curve do not turn so sharply that the side of
the steering arm contacts the inside of the
hole in the front of the chassis. If the steering
arm contacts the chassis the steering
mechanism might be damaged or the tow
vehicle and TB 60 might jackknife.
