INS-1582 Towbar Usage Instructions USAGE PROCEDURE Aircraft Attachment: It is recommended that your towbar be attached to the aircraft first, and then connected to the tug to avoid possible aircraft damage. Ensure sliding pins are locked in place before towing aircraft. Tug Attachment: Damage to the towbar or aircraft can result from an excessive towbar angle during towing operations (Reference to Figure 3).

The failure will begin at the head of the eye. See Figure Figure 7 illustrates a pintle hook arrangement that is known to eliminate eyebolt binding. Tronair recommends using this type of hook on your tug.
