HOW TO TOW
THE FORKLIFT

Before you tow the forklift for long distances be
sure to disconnect and remove both front and rear
drive lines to avoid damage to the transmission.
Because of the design of the hydraulic system, the
engine cannot be started by pushing or towing.
For short distance towing consult your Owners/
Operators Manual.
