CAUTION: When pushing aircraft backward with a towing
vehicle, perform all braking with the towing vehicle. Brake
application while the aircraft is being pushed backward,
other than by hand, may cause damage to the brake com-
ponents. Ensure that battery switches are set to OFF while
towing to avoid damage to the electric nosegear steering
actuator. If it is necessary to tow with power on the aircraft,
pull both AC and DC NOSE STEER CBs on the pilot’s CB
panel.
