Volvo EW160E - Retrieving and Towing

R
Retrieving and towing
Towing should only be performed to bring the machine out of a
risk area and only if the engine is still running.
NOTE!
If the engine cannot be started, the brake and steering functions
will be severely limited. In such cases, towing should only be
performed in an emergency situation by expirienced and trained
personnel and only the shortest possible distance of at most 5 km
(3 miles) and with a maximum towing speed of 10 km/h (6 mph).
If possible, transport the machine on a trailer.
A manual release of the parking brake is necessary to tow the
machine if the engine is not running. See page
180 .
