General Guidelines

Warning: Do not tow an unbraked vehicle if the combined weight of both vehicles is more than the sum of the gross axle weight ratings (GAWR) of the towing vehicle. Otherwise brake capacity will be inadequate, which could result in personal injury or death.

Warning: Before towing an eCascadia all rear axle shafts must be removed. Failure to remove the axle shafts will result in damage to the axle/vehicle, and the driven electric motors may cause induction currents and thus pose an electrical hazard.

If the vehicle is in a location where the drive shafts cannot be removed, the vehicle being rescued may only be towed out of the danger zone for a short distance and at a walking pace. Where possible, the ignition should be switched on and the neutral gear should be engaged. Once the vehicle is out of the danger zone, the drive shafts must be removed. If equipped with an aero bumper, remove before rescue towing, or bumper will be damaged.
