rectly
– Check that the traction system works cor-
rectly

Checking tyre pressure and condi-
tion
WARNING
Risk of accident
Uneven wear reduces the stability of the tow tractor
and increases braking distance.
– Worn or damaged tyres (left or right) must be re-
placed immediately.
Normally, each tyre must be inflated to 8 bar.
– If necessary, inflate the tyres (1).
– Check the condition of the tyres and tyre
wear (2). Look for tyre damage caused by
foreign bodies. Tyres must be worn evenly
on both sides.
