WARNINGS: LOADED BALL HEIGHT SHOULD NEVER BE GREATER THAN UNCOUPLED BALL HEIGHT. Front wheel overload and loss of rear wheel traction can
result, and can lead to unstable handling, reduced braking ability, and a tendency to "jackknife" when turning and braking at the same time. IF LOADED BALL HEIGHT IS
GREATER THAN UNCOUPLED HEIGHT, re-adjust head and re-measure until proper height is obtained.
DO NOT TOW MULTIPLE TRAILERS: Do not attempt to tow any type of trailer behind another trailer. Towing multiple trailers may cause severe instability, loss of
control and/or structural failure, and may result in vehicle accident, property damage and personal injury. Towing multiple trailers is illegal in many jurisdictions.
FRONT-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLES: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO HOOK-UP OR TOW WITH REAR WHEELS OF TOWING VEHICLE REMOVED. Severe structural damage
to towing vehicle, hitch, and trailer may result. A towing vehicle/trailer combination cannot be controlled adequately unless the towing vehicle's rear wheels are carrying
their share of the load.
MAINTENANCE: Keep the head assembly free of dirt and well lubricated. Excessive wear may indicate overload or inadequate lubrication.
Keep hitch painted to prevent rust and maintain a good appearance. (Do not paint over labels)
AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY TOWING DAY:
Clean ball and coupler socket and coat ball lightly with grease.
Check to see that all bolts are properly tightened and hitch pin and clip are securely in place.
Check to see that electrical hookups are in working order, and that safety chains are connected.
TOWING TIPS
DRIVING: Good habits for normal driving need extra emphasis when towing. The additional weight affects acceleration and braking, and extra time should be allowed for
passing, stopping, and changing lanes. Signal well in advance of a maneuver to let other drivers know your intentions. Severe bumps and badly undulating roads can
damage your towing vehicle, hitch, and trailer, and should be negotiated at a slow steady speed. IF ANY PART OF YOUR TOWING SYSTEM "BOTTOMS" OUT, OR IF
YOU SUSPECT DAMAGE MAY HAVE OCCURED IN ANY OTHER WAY, PULL OVER AND MAKE A THOROUGH INSPECTION. CORRECT ANY PROBLEMS
BEFORE RESUMING TRAVEL.
CHECK YOUR EQUIPMENT: Periodically check the condition of all your towing equipment and keep it in top condition.
TRAILER LOADING: Proper trailer loading is important. Heavy items should be placed close to the floor near the trailer axle. The load should be balanced side-to-side
and firmly secured to prevent shifting. Tongue weight should be about 10-15 percent of the gross trailer weight for most trailers. Too low a percentage of tongue weight
will often produce a tendency to sway. Excess weight on the tongue can also lead to sway and damage hitch and / or tow vehicle.
SWAY CONTROLS: A sway control can help minimize the affects of sudden maneuvers, wind gusts, and buffeting caused by other vehicles. Use of a sway control is
recommended for trailers with large surface areas, such as travel trailers.
TIRE INFLATION: Unless specified otherwise by the towing vehicle or trailer manufacturer, tires should be inflated to their maximum recommended pressure.
TOWING VEHICLE AND TRAILER MANUFACTURERS' RECOMMENDATIONS: Review the owners' manuals for your towing vehicle and trailer for specific
recommendations, capacities, and requirements.
PASSENGERS IN TRAILERS: Trailers should NOT be occupied while being towed, under any circumstances.
TRAILER LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND ELECTRIC BRAKES: Always hook up and verify function of the trailer lights, turn signals, electric brakes and break-away
switch connection (if so equipped) even for short trips.
REMOVE HITCH WHEN NOT TOWING: Remove hitch from towing vehicle receiver when not towing, to prevent contamination of head sockets, reduce chance of
striking hitch on driveway ramps or other objects, and minimize damage in the event of a rear-end collision.
