BE FASTENED.
IF THE SEAT BELT IS NOT FASTENED, THERE IS A RISK OF INJURY IF THE
AIRCRAFT STOPS SUDDENLY.

1. __________________
Reason for the Job

R This procedure is for towing of the aircraft in maintenance configuration or


R to disengage the aircraft from the gate area (a push-back and then a forward
R tow without turns or multiple stops/starts).

R NOTE : Operational towing, i.e. towing an aircraft, loaded with passengers,


____
R fuel, and cargo, from the terminal gate or parking area, to a remote
R location is not permitted.

R NOTE : For aircraft with cabin and/or cargo-compartment(s) floor panels


____
R removed, smooth and low-speed towing is recommended.

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.
____

NOTE : For the requirements related to towbars and towbar tractors,


____
refer to the SIL 09-003.

(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.

(2) Speed Limits

(a) Door closed and locked or removed:

1
_ For a tractor with a towbar, a maximum speed of 25 km/h (15.5
mph) is permitted.

2
_ For a tractor without towbar, a maximum speed of 32 km/h (19.8
mph) is permitted.

(b) Passenger/crew doors fully open and locked and/or cargo doors
open in vertical position:

1
_ The maximum speed permitted is 10 km/h (6.21 mph).

(c) In wind conditions, calculate the permitted towing speed before


towing:

1
_ Measure the wind speed.

2
_ Do a check of aircraft stability (Ref. TASK 05-57-00-200-001)
or (Ref. TASK 05-57-00-200-001).

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.

(3) Approximate Towing Loads


(Ref. Fig. 203/TASK 09-10-00-991-001)
R

(a) When you push the aircraft rearward with the engines at idle, you
must add the engine thrust resistance to the towing loads.

NOTE : The engine thrust resistance at ground idle is 400 daN


____
(for each engine in operation).

(b) Use these coefficients for the friction between the tires of the
R tow tractor and the ground to calculate the minimum tractor
R weight:
- Dry concrete or asphalt : 0.80
- Wet asphalt: 0.75

(4) Limit Loads and Angles


(Ref. Fig. 204/TASK 09-10-00-991-002, 205/TASK 09-10-00-991-022)

(a) In all the towing configurations, the safety pin locks the
control lever on the interphone box in the disengaged position.

(b) The maximum permitted steering-angle on each side of the aircraft


centerline is:
- +/- 95 degrees with towbar,
- +/- 85 degrees without towbar.

(c) During towing, the towing angle must not be more than the angle
shown on the FWD NLG doors.

NOTE : Step (c) is applicable for aircraft that have the wheel
____
steering-angle marking on the FWD NLG doors.

(d) Tow the aircraft (slowly and smoothly) with the main landing
gear:
- The maximum towing angle in the vertical plane is 11 degrees.
- The nose landing gear gives the limits for the maximum towing
angle in the horizontal plane.
(Ref. Fig. 206/TASK 09-10-00-991-004)

(e) Use a towbar with:


- The towing shear pins, calibration 9425 daN (21188.2388 lbf)
for the protection of the landing gear against too high loads,
- The safety shear pin, calibration 826 m.daN (6091.44 lbf.ft)
for the protection of the landing gear against too high
torsion.

(f) Use:
- The two special fork fittings and a cable to tow the main
landing gear forward or rearward. Attach these special fork
fittings to the lugs at each end of the landing gear.
- The safety shear pin, calibration 29000 daN (65194.5810 lbf)
which comes with the two-fitting/cable set.

NOTE : When the engines are not installed, tow the aircraft
____
smoothly.

_ Measure the wind speed.

R 2
_ Do a check of aircraft stability (Ref. TASK 05-57-00-200-001).

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.

R (3) Approximate Towing Loads
