CAUTION : OBEY THESE PRECAUTIONS WHEN YOU TOW OR MOVE THE AIRCRAFT ON THE
_______
GROUND WITH THE ENGINE REMOVED AND THE THRUST REVERSER
INSTALLED:
- THE THRUST REVERSER MUST BE CLOSED AND LATCHED.
- THE FAN COWLS MUST BE REMOVED.
- THE SPEED OF THE AIRCRAFT MUST BE 2 KM/H OR SLOWER.
- PREVENT SUDDEN MOVEMENTS OF THE THRUST REVERSER.
IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THESE INSTRUCTIONS, YOU CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO
THE NACELLE STRUCTURE.
CAUTION : DO NOT TOW OR MOVE THE AIRCRAFT ON THE GROUND IF THE ENGINE
_______
COWLS ARE OPEN.
MOVEMENT OF THE AIRCRAFT WITH THE COWLS OPEN CAN CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE COWLS AND THE NACELLE STRUCTURE.
(1) Towing
(Ref. Fig. 201/TASK 09-10-00-991-020)
NOTE : We recommend that you use a towbar that has a damping system.
____
(a) You can use the NLG towbar fitting to tow or push the aircraft:
R - at maximum weight,
- with the engines between zero and idle.
(b) You can use the MLG attachments to tow the aircraft:
- with the engines stopped,
- when it is bogged.
(c) Do not tow the aircraft if the dimension H is more than 300 mm
(11.8110 in.). If you do, you can cause damage to the cams that
make the nose gear wheels go back to the center position.

R 3
_ Subtract the measured wind speed from the wind speed limit
R shown on the stability curve. This gives the maximum permitted
R towing speed.
(a) When you push the aircraft rearward with the engines at idle, you
must add the engine thrust resistance to the towing loads.
(b) Use these coefficients for the friction between the tires of the

R YOU TOW OR PUSH BACK THE AIRCRAFT.
R THIS IS TO PREVENT HIGH LOADS WHICH CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE
R NOSE LANDING GEAR.
R NOTE : The shock absorber reaction can cause the aircraft to move

R forward and rearward when you stop the wheels. Because of
R this, make sure that there is sufficient space around the
R aircraft when you tow by the nose gear.
R (3) Tow slowly and smoothly, refer to paragraph 3.A. for the speed
R limits.
R (4) During towing, make sure that the accumulator pressure indication on
R the Yellow brake-pressure triple-indicator is correct: the pointer
R must stay approximately in the range above 2000 psi (137.8951 bar).
R If the pointer is at 2000 psi (137.8951 bar) or below, pressurize the
