WARNING
■
Check that the tow bar is seated correctly and is secured in the mounting
recess before the start of every journey.
■
When the ball rod is not used and properly secured in the receiving shaft,
this could be damaged or incomplete and must not be used - risk of acci-
dent.
■
Do not modify or adapt the towing device in any way.
■
Keep the mounting recess of the towing equipment clean at all times.
Such dirt prevents the ball head from being attached securely.
