of the cradle and lower the ramp.
Slowly move the aircraft tug to the nose wheel of the aircraft
or helicopter. Make sure that the TF3 is aligned as straight as
possible to the aircraft to ensure smooth pick-up.
If the unit is correctly positioned in front of the nose wheel,
move it slowly and carefully forward, so that the nose wheel
can pass over the ramp into the cradle.
When the nose wheel is in the correct position, the the ramp
will close automatically by the motion and weight of the
aircraft or helicopter.
The capturing process is completed. Now remove the safety
bolt from the turntable as well as the chocks (if positioned on
the main landing gear). If the brake of the aircraft is engage,
disengage it before moving the tug.
Now the towing operation can be started. The tug can be
rotated 360° around the nose wheel after removing the
safety bolt from the turntable.
ATTENTION! Avoid fast and sudden movements at
all costs.
