Driving Tow Vehicle

Good habits for normal driving need extra emphasis when towing a trailer. The additional weight of the trailer
affects acceleration and braking. 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 occurred in any other way, pull over and
make a thorough inspection. Correct any problems before resuming travel.
Turning and backing up present new problems; plan ahead.
Towing a trailer will change your turning radius, the longer the trailer the larger radius turn.

Driving Conditions

When driving in conditions where the pavement is wet, icy, snowy, loose gravel, grass and dirt, reduce speed and
do not make any sudden maneuvers. Allow ample distance/time for stopping and changing lanes. If possible, wait
for road conditions to improve before driving.
Follow all state, local and provincial driving and towing laws in the location you are driving in.
Not following your tow vehicle, trailer, and Husky instructions/manuals can result in a fatal accident.

Check Your Equipment

Please refer to the MAINTENANCE section. Periodically check the condition of all your towing equipment and
keep it in top condition.

Trailer Loading

Proper trailer loading is very important. Heavy items should be placed close to the floor near the trailer axle
centerline. The load should be balanced side to side and firmly secured in the trailer to prevent shifting.

Tire Inflation

Unless specified otherwise by the towing vehicle or trailer manufacturer, tires should be inflated to their
manufacturer's towing recommendations.
