If the loader in trouble is towed on a bad road,
it
will further damaged.
If the brake system fails, the brake is out of use, and special attention shall be paid in the
course of towing operation.
Precautions for towing operation:
1. Unless the driver may control the direction and/or brake of the loader, no person may
stay on the loader which is being towed.
2. Before the towing operation, make sure that the towing rope or towing rod is in good
conditions and has the enough strength to tow the loader. The strength of the towing
rope or towing rod used shall be
at
least 1.5 times the gross weight of the loader to be
towed, so as to ensure that the loader can be pulled up from mud or along a slope.
3. The angle of the towing rope shall be minimized, and the included angle between the
towing rope and travelling direction may not exceed 30 ° .
4.
Too
quick movement of the loader may get the towing rope or towing rod broken.
Better effect may be obtained if the loader moves slowly and smoothly.
5. In the course of towing operation, all persons shall keep away from the towing rope,
so as to avoid the personal injury caused
by
the broken towing rope.
6. Under normal conditions, the towing tractor shall be of the same size as the loader to
be towed.
It
shall be ensured that the towing tractor has enough braking ability, weight
and power to control two loaders.
7. When going down along a slope, in order to ensure that the loader towed can be
properly controlled and braked, a towing tractor or another loader of larger size shall
be connected to the rear end of the loader towed, so as to prevent
it
from being out of
control and overturning.
8. If the direction of the loader towed is controlled
by
the driver, the driver shall turn along
the direction of the towing rope.
