Q When towing
O As a double safety measure, attach the
vehicle being towed to the eyelet bolt
with a cable or rope.
O Attach the vehicle being pulled to the
pintle hook so that the pulling force is
horizontal.
O Because of the installations of the pintle
hook and steps, the vehicle’s departure
angle is reduced. Be careful not to inter-
fere with road surface while driving
through rough terrain.
The pintle hook can be used for
towing.
