6.3 Winching and Towing
Procedure
This section provides the operator with the winching
and towing procedure, which includes instructions on
how to manually release the brakes.
WARNING
Ensure boom is in stowed position before

In emergency situations where MEWP functions
are not available and lowering is impeded by an
obstacle, utmost care must be taken to move
MEWP far enough to clear obstacle. In such cases,
operation must be extremely smooth with no
sudden movements and must not exceed a speed
of 50 mm/sec (2 in/sec).

When winching or towing, do not exceed 3.2 km/h
(2 mph).

the towing vehicle rapidly. Do not pull MEWP down
an incline towards a winch.
