  1. Turn on the electric tug.


    Figure 1. Turning on the product
  2. Place your hands on the handle of the tiller head and move the tiller head to the operating range (F).
  3. Control the electric tug as follows. When doing so, always look in the direction of travel of the electric tug, see Drive control lever (DCL).
    • Using your thumb, push the DCL upward to drive the electric tug away from you.
    • Using your thumb, push the DCL downward to drive the electric tug toward you or drive forward with the load attached (for the procedure of coupling/uncoupling a load see chapter Connecting/disconnecting the load).
    • Move the tiller head to the left or right to determine the direction of travel of the electric tug.
    • Release the DCL to make the electric tug stop. The operator must be aware of the braking distance which may vary in relation to the weight carried and/or the surface on which the electric tug is used!
