VERTICAL DETACHABLE TOWBAR
Mounting of the detachable towbar

A. Before installing the detachable towball you must be sure it is in the `set` position. This can be seen from the color in the indicator window of the operation handle: this should be `red`. If this is not the case then push in the operation handle firmly to the end and then rotate the Handle - while keeping it pushed in - fully clockwise to its end position. The handle now will remain in this (`set`) position.
B. Remove the plastic weather cap and ensure that the housing is clear of any mud, gravel, road debris, i.e. Insert the detachable towbar into housing and move it up until the triangular pins are set into the corresponding recesses (left & right) of the housing.
While inserting the detachable towbar into the housing keep your hands away from the operation handle.
Next, pull the ball itself towards you while holding the towbar in the above position, i.e. triangular pins resting into their corresponding recesses (left/right) in the housing. The system then will automatically lock and the operation handle will turn to indication green and will also pop out about 5 mm. CHECK THIS !

If this is not the case, remove the towbar and start the mounting process again at point `A`.
