Unlock the mount´s ramp using the handle at the back of the
cradle and lower the ramp. If the handle is blocked, move the
tug a slightly forward or backward (depending on the posi-
tion) to reduce the pressure of the nose wheel on the mount.
When the ramp is lowered, move the aircraft tug slowly away
from the aircraft using the remote control so that the nosew-
heel is removed from the tug over the ramp.
When the aircraft is completely unloaded and the aircraft tug
is at a safe distance to the aircraft, fold back up the ramp.
ATTENTION! Ferry rides should only be performed
with the ramp folded up otherwise excessive wear
due to friction is to be assumed!
5.9 Possibilities of nose wheel pickup
The aircraft tug oers two dierent ways to pick up the nose wheel of the aircraft. The graphic
below shows you the dierent options.
Attention! Before unloading always make sure that no components such as
propellers, aps, sensors or antennas are in the way.
