PRODUCT REVIEWS
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The head attaches to the towbar using a ball-lock T-pin, which is supplied with the multi-head towbar. This system ensures a strong, reliable connection while allowing for quick attachment and removal.
The shear pins are safety devices designed to fail under excessive stress, protecting the aircraft and tug from potential damage. Operators should always verify that the shear pins are intact and keep spare pins available in case replacements are needed.
Operators should inspect welds for cracks, check shear pins to ensure they are not broken or missing, and confirm that sliding pins move freely. Using a damaged or bent towbar or one with a missing shear pin may damage aircraft or create safety risks for personnel.
Towbar heads should be inspected at least once a week for cracks, bending, or wear. Particular attention should be given to shear plates, sliding pins, welds, and retaining mechanisms. Regular inspection ensures safe towing operations and prevents unexpected failures.
Tronair recommends operators keep a K-4993 Replacement Sliding Pin Kit in stock. This ensures that worn or damaged pins can be replaced quickly, minimizing downtime.
Yes, the towbar head meets European Community guidelines and carries the CE mark. This ensures compliance with relevant safety and manufacturing standards, making it suitable for international operations.
Tronair warrants the towbar head to be free from manufacturing and material defects for one year after shipment to the original customer. Replacement parts carry a 90-day warranty. Unauthorized modifications or use outside the guidelines of the manual will void the warranty.
