Always use a towing bar when towing. Deviation
from this rule is only allowed in emergencies.
When towing, the fault messages may appear in
the master display when the ignition is switched

Tractors may be fitted with a small towing hook at
the rear end of the chassis. Use this towing hook
only for light shunting work.
Being towed by another vehicle
WARNING! Towing a fully loaded
vehicle or a vehicle with trailer
attached can result in unstable
vehicle behaviour during critical
driving situations applying to the
towing and/or towed vehicle. This
can lead to very dangerous
situations. High forces and tensions
in the chassis and drive line of the
vehicles can also lead to damage to
the vehicles.
- Do not tow the vehicle when
fully loaded or with a trailer
attached.
WARNING! The towed vehicle can be
located asymmetrically (left or right)
behind the tractor. Towing at an
angle larger than 20° with the vehicle
centreline can result in unstable
vehicle behaviour for the towing
and/or towed vehicle during critical
driving situations. This can lead to
very dangerous situations. High
forces and tensions in the chassis
and drive line of the vehicles can
also lead to damage to the vehicles.
- Towing may not take place at an
angle larger than 20° with the
vehicle centreline.
