DO NOT operate the burner while the
distributor is being towed.
Keep these items in mind before towing the tack tank
distributor and while in transit:
• The vehicle towing the unit must be large enough
to handle the weight of the tack distributor. (See
Specications in Section 2.)
• Ensure the pintle hook and safety chains are securely
fastened BEFORE towing.
• Ensure lights and reectors are clean, in working
order, and visible to trafc.
• Drive slowly and carefully while towing the distributor.
Reduce speed accordingly on rough or slippery roads
and when making turns.
Follow these instructions carefully to prepare for towing:

Place wheel chocks on both sides of the distributor
trailer tires. (Page 4-26)
