In order to tow the truck, two requirements must
be met:
* the bypass valve must be in the towing position
* the multiple disc brake must be released
WARNING
The truck can not be braked when the multiple disc
brake is released.
For towing, an additional vehicle of sufficient pulling
power and braking force is required for the unbraked
trailing load.
The fork truck may only be towed with a solid connection
(tow bar)
