Place direction selector in neutral. The neutral lock
should be used to lock the direction selector in position.
This will reduce the possibility of it moving into 'F' (for -
ward) or 'R' (reverse) while being towed, causing possi-
ble damage to the rear axle.
Do not tow a single vehicle at speeds in excess of 12
mph (19 kph). Do not tow more than three vehicles at a
time. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while towing multiple
vehicles. Towing the vehicle at above recommended
speed may result in severe injury and/or damage to vehi-
cle and other property.
Tow bars are not intended for road use.
Never use ropes or chains to tow vehicle(s). Tow bars
are available from the Service Parts Department.
Tow bars are not intended for highway use. Before tow-
ing, place direction selector in neutral and engage neu-
tral lock. Do not ride on vehicle being towed. Tow bars
are designed to tow only one vehicle at a maximum
speed of 12 mph (19 kph) and up to three vehicles at a
maximum speed of 5 mph (8 kph).
NEUTRAL LOCK
To prevent the driven clutch from turning the rear wheels
during service operations and to prevent wear to the belt
while being towed, a neutral lock is located at the direc-
tion selector or the rear axle.
On Rear Axle
To operate:
Position direction selector lever between 'F' and 'R'. Turn
key switch to 'OFF'. Rotate pin on rear axle shift lever as
shown (Ref Fig. 13 on page 11). The pin will snap into a
cavity in the differential case. When in this position, the
direction selector remains locked in the neutral position.
To unlock the direction selector, pull the pin out and
rotate until the pointed portion of the pin handle fits into
the detent position in the rear axle shift lever.
