UNCRATING INSTRUCTIONS
Continued
6. Using the end of the crate, stack the
2x4's (step 4) on top of each other, as
illustrated. (FIG 3)
7. Place the removed end wall with the ½"
plywood resting on the 2x4's to create a
ramp. (FIG 4)
NOTE: The B5 comes with two (2)
2x4 boards in the crate, while the
B8 and B12 come with three (3). Use
the third 2x4 board to support the
ramp, as shown in FIG 4 for the more
substantial B8 and B12 models. The third
board is not necessary for B5. If you
have a painted floor, we recommend
performing this step outside of the
hangar to avoid any possible scuffs or
scratches.
8. Turn the tug on by rotating the red
E-Stop on the end of the control panel
clockwise and pushing the master
switch to the "on" position.
9. Set the direction to "PULL" and slowly
twist the throttle to drive your tug out
of the crate. See page 11 of your User
Manual for further instructions on how
to operate tug safely.
If you are using an Easy Load or Lazy Susan
configuration: the tug comes from the factory
with the tire cradle in a loaded position. Unlock
the hook and then physically pull the locking
hook back to release the cradle before physically
moving the ramp to the loading position. Note:
Before each use, double-check your loading
tray. Repeat the step of manually lowering the
First Use
ramp if needed.
A couple notes:
The twisting and lock-
ing slides are attached
to the QLF. They are list-
ed for reference purpos-
es. Be sure to remove
the L-Handle Pin before
rotating the control
arm into the operating
position. The contents
in your crate may vary
from the illustrations.
