• To reduce friction between the hitch ball and coupler, apply a layer of heavyweight grease
over the hitch ball.
• With assistance, place the coupler over the vehicles hitch ball and pull back on the trigger and
push down on the handle until the trigger locks in the slot. Pull up and down on the coupler to
make sure the hitch ball is fitting snugly in the coupler. There should be no play between the
hitch ball and coupler. An adjustment nut is located under the coupler.
Before each use, always attach the safety chain of the trailer to the towing vehicle. Make sure
the safety chain is attached to the towing vehicle with the same length for each side. DO NOT
allow the safety chain to drag on the ground. Make sure to attach each side of the safety chain
equally to the towing vehicles rear bumper or frame. Overlap the safety chain below the
coupler.
Connect the Tail Light Wiring Assembly to the towing vehicle's 12 Volt DC system. NOTE: Make
sure to consult the operator's manual of the towing vehicle for proper connection instructions.
When towing the Trailer over long distances stop and check the tightness of all connections,
side running lights and tail lights at least every 100 miles.
Under inflated tires can decrease handling, stopping performance, traction, tire life, and load-
carrying capability, in addition to causing other negative and hazardous effects, including tire
failure. Over inflated tires are at greater risk of an impact break, where the tread and casing
break when striking a hard edge, often opening a huge gash across the tread. Incorrect inflation
pressure also increases tires wear rate. Therefore, it is important to keep tires inflated properly.
Check all tires' pressure at least monthly, due to the following factors:
a) Most tires naturally lose air gradually
b) Tires can suddenly lose air if the tire strikes a pothole, curb or other object.
c) It is usually not possible to determine under inflation of radial tires by visual inspection.
This vehicle has 60 PSI recommended cold tire inflation pressure. The term "cold" in this
manual does not refer to the temperature outside, but it refers to the fact that a tire that has not
been driven for a period is cooler (and therefore has lower pressure) than a tire that has been
driven on. Tires heat up while being driven on. To check (or fill to) a tire's cold inflation, the tire
must have not been driven for more than a mile or two for at least three hours. If you check a
tires pressure when it is not "cold", the pressure will appear higher than the actual cold tire
inflation.
BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Trailer. Check for loose bolts and nuts,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked, bent or broken parts, excessively worn
safety chain, damaged tail lights/side running lights/wiring harness, loose lug nuts, loose hitch
connection and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or
vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged
equipment.
BEFORE EACH USE, check the tires for wear and proper inflation (60 PSI)
BEFORE EVERY USE AND AT 500 MILE INTERVALS DURING EVERY TRIP, check and tighten tire
lug nuts. Torque from 85-90 ft-lb.
EVERY 2,000 TO 3,000 MILES OF USE, lubricate the hub assemblies with a heavy weight bearing
grease. Follow the bearing packing instructions as explained on the "Bearing Packing
Instruction" page of this manual.
