Operating instructions
Recovering/towing 73
Case 1 (with engine running)
The gear selector should be in neutral and the parking brake in
running position. The machine can be towed 10 km (6 miles)
without taking special precautions.
Case 2 (with engine not running)
As the transmission does not receive any lubrication when the
engine is not running, the propeller shaft between transmission
and dropbox must be removed. In that way lubrication to the
dropbox is maintained at the same time as the machine can be
steered.
Removing propeller shaft
1 Place the machine in service position, see page 89.
2 Block the wheels so that the machine cannot start rolling and
then release all brakes.
3 Release the parking brake.
4 Make sure that the front or rear wheels are slightly above the
ground, before removing the bolts from the propeller shaft.
Filling compressed-air system
When required, the compressed-air system can be filled through
filler valve (B), by using compressed air from another machine.
The filler valve is positioned to the left behind the cab.

The following safety measures should be taken before the towbar,
wire rope or chain is disconnected after recovering / towing:
1 Place the machine on level ground.
