PUMP & MTG GP-PILOT & BRAKE 3475013 - Caterpillar

Personal injury or death could result when towing a disabled machine incorrectly.Block the machine to prevent movement before releasing the brakes. The machine can roll free if it is not blocked.Follow the recommendations below, to properly perform the towing procedure.
This machine is equipped with spring applied, hydraulic pressure released brakes. If the engine or power train hydraulics are inoperable, the brakes are applied and the machine can not be moved.These towing instructions are for moving a disabled machine a short distance, only a few meters (feet) at low speed, no faster than 2 km/h (1.2 mph), to a convenient location for repair. These instructions are for emergencies only. Always haul the machine if long distance moving is required.Shielding must be provided on the towing machine, to protect the operator if the tow line or bar should break.Do not allow riders on the machine being towed, unless the operator can control the steering and/or braking.Before towing, make sure the tow line or bar is in good condition and has enough strength for the towing situation involved. Use a towing line or bar with a strength of at least 1.5 times the gross weight of the towing machine, for a disabled machine stuck in mud or when towing on a grade.Keep the tow line angle to a minimum. Do not exceed a 30° angle from the straight ahead position.Quick machine movement could overload the tow line or bar and cause it to break. Gradual and smooth machine movement will work better.Normally, the towing machine should be as large as the disabled machine. Satisfy yourself that the towing machine has enough brake capacity, weight and power, to control both machines for the grade and distance involved.To provide sufficient control and braking when moving a disabled machine downhill, a larger towing machine or additional machines connected to the rear could be required. This will prevent it from rolling uncontrolled.The different situation requirements cannot be given, as minimal towing machine capacity is required on smooth level surfaces to maximum on inclines or poor surface conditions.Consult your Caterpillar dealer for towing a disabled machine. When towing the machine, attach tow line to the front or rear tow pin only.
If the axles are removed, the machine will not have brakes and can roll free on a slope. Block the wheels to prevent unexpected machine movement.
Engine Stopped
Perform the following precautionary steps before towing the truck with the engine stopped and/or with loss of transmission oil pressure or loss of secondary/parking brake air reservoir pressure.The supplemental steering system may be used to steer the truck while being towed. 1. Block the wheels. Remove the axle shafts if an internal transmission or drive line failure is suspected.
Remove air pressure from the brake system of the vehicle to be towed, before removing plugs from air dryer. Failure to release this pressure will cause a sudden release of air or oil under high pressure, causing possible personal injury.
2. Remove the plug from the side of the air dryer housing. Install
