Title: Tow Warning Sticker
Post by: Duane Budd on September 30, 2010, 10:49:10 am
In my Foretravel manuals I have found a yellow sticker with the words

                                                    ATTENTION!
                                          TOW VEHICLE OPERATORS

                        When towing this vehicle, the ignition MUST be
                        left in the "ON" position, in order that the
                        air suspension may operate.

and on the instruction sheet it says to

                                    "PLACE THIS WARNING STICKER
                                    WHERE IT CAN BE EASILY SEEN
                                    BY A TOW VEHICLE OPERATOR"

So where the heck do you put the sticker? The previous owner did not place it anywhere, just left it in the manual.

The warning sticker on mine is under the lift up section of the dash next to the build number sticker and alignment tag.

We had a discussion at the grandvention on towing our FT if needed. The differences are mostly age related. The newer coaches after 02 are  different and are higher but check your book it is in there. You can also air up the coach remotely and that will help for a short tow.

James also said to make sure the tow operator disconnects the drive shaft or removes the axles prior to towing.  He said the tow driver should know to do that but to make sure.

Okay guys, I would put it where ever the tow operator connects the air line to.
