JMS. The new fl exibility in GSE. Do not regard this

as an advertising slogan – take it as our promise to you.

Four known people – all professionals and experienced

within the GSE industry – have joined forces in order

to provide more fl exibility, stimulate product innovation

and reach out to increase customer service provided.

Straight listening to customers, in-house engineering,

short distances to certifi ed production partners and

being able to react quickly to market requirements.

That‘s what we call new “fl exibility!“

REGISTERED DESIGN

Handpump unit in monoblock-design, available with all tow bars of standard

and versa type

Stainless steel covers for retraction springs provide safety in-line with

CE requirements (elimination of crushing danger for operator's hands)

and protect springs and handpump from ambient dirt. The compact

monoblock-design (pump, cylinder and tank in one compact unit) is

nearly maintenance-free.

Whether for standard push-back-operations, towing

to parking positions or for maintenance towing:

the J-TOW series tow bars allow an individual

confi guration of the required tow bar in accordance

with your own requirements. Built on an economical

base version, options such as a fl oating axle (lateral

fl exibility during coupling to the aircraft), revolving or

revolving/shock-absorbing tow eye, painting/livery in

customer colors or different types of wheels can be

easily combined to form your perfect equipment.

Ideas and quality "Made in Europe". This is our

understanding of new fl exibility.

Advantages at a glance:• more fl exible

• faster

• safer

• easy to position

• better protection

• long service life

• more economical

J-TOW Series

The J-TOW series of tow bars cover the complete fl eet

of commercially available equipment - from wide-body

and single aisle to regional airliners. We always have a

matching tow bar in our product range.

TOW series – options & designs

The J-TOW series allows individual product confi gurations:

fl oating axle, revolving or revolving/shock-absorbing tow

eye, fi nish in customer-specifi c colors etc. Besides our

standard program, we have many more designs options

such as splittable tubes, fl y-away kits, special dimensions

and many others available on request.

Standard design

• task-oriented and economical base versions allow

safe ground operations with any aircraft type

• The hydraulically height-adjustable under-

carriage (models standard and versa) provides

ergonomic operation and easy handling with a

perfectly balanced tow bar

• Tow heads with shear pins and retaining pins

in accordance with OEM requirements provide

maximum safety and protection of the NLG against

overload

• Spare shear pins mounted on a pin-rack allow

safe and enduring serviceability of the tow bar

• Bolted components/assemblies (vs welded design)

allow the specifi c repair/exchange of individual

components hence reduce maintenance/repair costs

• The proven design of handpump/tank and

hydraulic cylinder in one unit (mono-block)

reduces maintenance requirements

• Optimized user safety with stainless steel covers in

accordance with CE requirements

INNOVATION: Solutions such as the

J-TOWversa3 provide the following advantages:

- Covering both, A320- and B737 family

(all versions on both families) with one single

tow head; switch from one to the other in

< 10 seconds

- new, multi-functional shear pin system

(registered design), allows the adjustment of

the correct shear value in a few seconds

without any tools, during winter operations

also when wearing gloves

- Result: increased economics and safety

Options

• alternative designs, see table aside for

optimum confi guration of your tow bar package

• Solid rubber/biofi ll tires as alternative to air-fi lled

tires for extreme service conditions

• Floating axle allows easier coupling of the tow

bar to the NLG

• Revolving tow eyes (with or without) integrated

shock absorber protect NLGs and increase

service life

• Splittable tow bar tube for transport optimization

• Fly-away tow bars for unrestricted worldwide

operations of your aircraft

• Customer specifi c colors/fi nish and decals

Quality & safety

• CE design (in accordance with Machinery

Directive 2006/42/EC)

• Skydrol-resistant fi nish

• Designed and tested in accordance with the

relevant international standards for ground support

equipment (DIN EN 1915-1/-2, DIN EN 12312-7,

SAE AS 1614 Rev, C, SAE ARP 1915D, IATA AHM

958, BGV C10)

• Design of push/pull and torque shear values in

accordance with the OEM requirements

• Spare parts service in Europe within 24 hours
