Assembly & Operating Instructions

MODELS: TT-M-EM-3 & TT-M-EA-3

Airtug, LLC is not responsible for damage sustained when

proper clearance is not maintained by the operator between the

tug and its surroundings.

Caution:

Braking too abruptly from a higher speed can

seriously damage the differential ring gear. This is considered

abuse and will not be covered by the transaxle warranty.

Note: All reference to "right" and "left" orientation is made while

standing behind the tug, looking forward from the operator position.

Tug Operation: There is an On/Off switch at the top of the handle. Flip the switch to the "On"

position when ready to use the tug. This powers the unit and disengages the parking brake (if

applicable). Leave the switch in the "Off" position between use and to engage the parking brake (if

applicable). Always, remember to turn the unit off when you are ﬁnished. Select the direction you

want to go: forward or reverse. The thumb throttle control operates the transaxle. The transaxle

provides smooth, variable control of the tug speed. In tight quarters the tug can be operated very

slowly offering greater safety when moving your trailer. When tugging the trailer an extended

distance, it is easiest and safest to face forward with the tug and trailer behind you while controlling

the tug speed with the thumb throttle. Always return the toggle switch at the top of the handle to the

"Off" position when leaving the tug momentarily or between each use to engage the parking brake (if

applicable). While moving the trailer on a reasonable downgrade, the tug will only move as fast as

the operator allows.

Depending on how the trailer is set up, raising or lowering the ball may help shift more weight onto

the tug drive wheels for improved traction. Please note that if the weight on the tongue of the trailer is

not set up properly, additional weight may be needed on the drive wheels of the tug. Also, lowering

the tire pressure on the tug should improve traction. There is also a sticker on the handle for other

recommendations to improve traction. Airtug® sells additional weight packs if you are having

problems with traction and have tried all the recommendations on the handle. For best practice,

safety, and for the best traction, begin movement as slowly as possible to put the trailer in motion.
