Vehicle Recovery
TOWING FOR RECOVERY
TRANSPORTER OR TRAILER LASHING
Most vehicle recovery specialists will load
Discovery onto a trailer. However, if it is
necessary to recover the vehicle by towing with
all four wheels on the ground, observe the
following procedure:
1.
With the handbrake applied, set both the
main gearbox and transfer box in neutral
(
Turn the starter switch to the first position
‘N’ Neutral for Automatic transmission).
2.
to unlock the steering, and then to position
‘
II’ if it will be necessary to operate the
brake lights and direction indicators.
Secure the towing attachment to the front
towing eye of the distressed vehicle.
Release the handbrake.
3.
4.
NOTE: If, due to an accident or electrical fault, it
is not considered safe to turn the starter switch,
the battery should first be disconnected.

Pairs of lashing rings are fixed to the underside
of the vehicle - at the front (to the rear of the
front wheels) and at the rear (backward of the
rear wheels). DO NOT secure lashing hooks or
trailer fixings to any other part of the vehicle.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to tow the vehicle unless the
starter switch is turned to position ‘I’.
DO NOT remove the key or turn the starter
switch to position ‘0’ while the vehicle is in
motion; the starter switch must be at position
NOTE: The front rings are for lashing only and
must NOT be used for towing. The rear lashing
rings are designed for both towing and lashing.

Without the engine running, the brake servo
and power steering pump cannot provide
assistance; greater effort will therefore be
required to operate the brake pedal and turn
the steering wheel. Longer stopping
distances will also be experienced.
