INITIAL USE
Continued
EZ Load/ Lasy Susan
The Cage on the Ez Load/Lazy
Susan needs to be adjusted to fit
your specific tire. After you load
your plane, adjust the width by
adjusting the two sliders on the
bottom of the Cage so that they
are close to the tire's sidewalls.
Remove the pins and adjust the
sliders to the nearest hole, then
put the pins back in.
The size of the wheel that can be
loaded can be adjusted. Remove
the thumbscrews and adjust the
Cage so that it fits closely to your
tire diameter. We designed the
Cage to resist letting your tire
pop out of the Cage. If you have
not adjusted this feature, a tire
could pop out of a loosely fitted
Cage.
Warnings
Check the plane's surroundings,
remove any obstructions, verify
that your path is clear, and
your propulsion systems (prop),
wings, and tail, clears. Please
verify that your wheel is secure
on the tug, including strapping
it down. Finally, remove the
wheel chocks. You are ready
to move your plane. Check
your plane's POH to verify the
7
maximum turn radius for your
particular nose gear. The tug
can turn your plane at an angle
that may exceed the nose gear's
maximum turn radius.
assumes no responsibility
Tugs™
for any damage caused by
the tug operator misusing the
equipment. As the operator,
you have the responsibility
to be familiar with your tug,
your plane, and their specific
limitations.
Note: E-Stop means
EMERGENCY STOP. Not
power off, not stop my tug
from moving—It means Stop
now—I don't care if my tug and
my plane's landing gear are
damaged, because my plane
going through the hanger wall,
or trapping your body against
the hanger wall, is much more
expensive to repair.
When you shut down the tug
with the E-Stop, all that energy
in the motor controller has to
go somewhere, and it does—
destroying the controller over
time.
