TOWING A DISABLED PRODUCT

The following information assumes the telehandler cannot be moved under its
own power.

• Before moving the telehandler, read all of the following information to understand

options available. Then select the appropriate method.

• The steering system permits manual steering if engine or power assist feature

fails; however, steering will be slow and will require much greater force.

DO NOT attempt to tow a telehandler that is loaded or the boom/attachment is

raised above 4 ft (1,2 m).

Moving Short Distances

• If it is only necessary to move telehandler a short distance, less than 100 ft

(30 m), it is permissible to use a vehicle of sufficient capacity to tow the unit with
no previous preparation. Drive wheels will not roll.

Moving Longer Distances

• If the telehandler must be moved longer distances, it must be loaded onto a

trailer of sufficient capacity.

Contact your local Authorized Distributor for specific instructions if neither of
these methods are applicable.
