TOWING WITH THE VEHICLE
WARNING
• Do not tow a vehicle or trailer on public streets or
highways.
• Normal vehicle operating speed should be
reduced when towing.
• Extreme caution should be used when towing.
• Do not allow riders in the vehicle or trailer being
towed.
• Avoid sudden starts, sudden stops, and tight
turns when towing.
• Avoid stopping on a hill when towing. If you must
stop on a hill, avoid sudden starts, or rolling
backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to
heed this warning may cause vehicle to overturn,
possibly resulting in severe personal injury.
Towing another Bobcat vehicle or a trailer can have
adverse effects on vehicle handling. Be especially
cautious when towing other equipment with a Bobcat
vehicle. See the preceding chart for vehicle
capacities.
Parking the vehicle with a trailer on a hill should be
avoided. If you must park on a hill, apply brakes and have
someone chock tires of trailer. Brakes should be released
to allow chocks to absorb load of trailer. After tires have
been chocked, engage park brake.
