the helicopter during the tow operation.
The safety persons must check the clearance from the tips of the
main and tail rotor blades.

wheel.
• All the tools and the equipment are moved clear of the helicopter.
• Then towbar must be engaged to the nose wheel axle using the

position (counterclockwise) to disengage the nose wheel center lock
pin before towing the helicopter.
The lever must be locked, using the quick-release pin stowed on the
towbar, during towing.
