TOWING THE M876 TRUCK - CONTINUED
Rear Tandem Lifted Off the Ground
NOTE
The M876 truck is not equipped with a front drive-type axle, so with the rear tandem suspended off the
ground, there is no need to remove or disconnect drivelines.
1.
The front wheels must be positioned in a straight ahead position and secured as follows:
a.
Position the front wheels straight ahead.
b.
Using the security chain, pass the unsecured end up and through the steering wheel spokes nearest the
chain.
c.
Secure the chain end to the chain, as short as possible, to snub (restrict) any possible steering wheel
movement during towing.
2.
Attach tow attachment to both vehicles, and secure the safety chains.
3.
The disabled truck is now ready for lifting and towing.
