The On-Board Parts Box contains spare track links, clips, and tools to quickly replace
or repair tracks. It also includes cradle shims and mounting screws to lift the wheel
cradle ramp away from the ground. When the ground is very uneven the wheel cradle
ramp may hit the ground preventing the aircraft from loading. These components are
located on-board the tug, underneath the electronics cover.

Note:
The 3 Speed Toggle ranges from fast, to moderate, to slow. When operating the tug at
slow speed it may be necessary to switch to the moderate or fast speed mode on the
toggle when turning. Factors such as terrain and incline may aff ect the maneuverability of
the tug. Adjust speed modes at your discretion.
1. Switch the remote control ON. The power indicator light turns on and the remote
control beeps once. If this does not happen, check the remote control battery con-
nection for proper installation. When the battery level is low, the remote control will
begin to beep repeatedly, signaling to replace or recharge the batteries.
