Assembly & Operating Instructions

MODELS: EL3-S & EL3-H

Airtug, LLC is not responsible for aircraft damage sustained when proper

clearance is not maintained between the tug and the aircraft.

Tug Operation:

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

ready to use the tug. Leave the switch in the "Off" position between use. The twist grip control handle

operates the hydrostatic transaxle. Rotating the grip handle changes the displacement of the

transmission pump, which determines the transaxle output speed. Rotating the grip handle slightly

(forward or reverse) results in a creeper (very slow) tug speed with maximum torque being applied to

the drive wheels. Full grip handle rotation (forward or reverse) results in maximum tug speed and

minimum torque. The hydrostatic transaxle provides smooth, variable control of the tug speed. In tight

quarters in and around the hangar, the tug can be operated very slowly offering greater safety when

moving your aircraft. Moving an aircraft on an incline requires the greatest amount of torque and

should be done at slower speeds. Always have a little momentum when approaching the hangar door

seal or weather edge when returning the aircraft to the hangar. When tugging the aircraft an extended

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

the tug speed with the twist grip handle. The twist grip control is spring loaded to return to the brake

position. While in the brake position, the power train is locked and the tug will not move allowing the

operator to safely walk away to check wingtip and tail clearances. As an additional safety precaution,

always return the toggle switch at the top of the handle to the "Off" position when leaving the tug

momentarily or between each use. Hydraulic braking is effected by gradually rotating the grip towards

the brake position, but not any faster than necessary. While moving the aircraft on a downgrade, the

tug will only move as fast as the operator allows.

Caution:

Braking too abruptly from a higher speed with a heavy aircraft attached can seriously

damage the differential ring gear. This is considered abuse and will not be covered by the transaxle

warranty.

Aircraft Loading:

Position the Airtug up to the the aircraft nose wheel with the ramp centered on

the wheel and stop. Place the strut strap or optional "J" hook (purchased separately) around the nose

gear strut, connect to the winch hook and with the winch pull the aircraft onto the tug until the tire hits

the backstop or chock accessory for aircraft with a nose wheel fairing. Make sure the winch is in the

locked position prior to moving the tug.
