FIGURE F
Temporarily remove the “R” Pin and Safety Pin. Then, pull up on the Trigger and lift
up on the Handle. (See Figure F.)
With assistance, place the Coupler (A14) over the vehicle’s 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 Cou-
pler. There should be no play between the hitch ball and Coupler.
IMPORTANT - If there is play, tighten the Adjustment Nut until no play is present:
After unlocking the Handle, the Nut retaining plate (holding the adjusting nut in
place) needs to be pressed back while the Nut is tightened. After Nut is tight-
ened, the retaining plate needs to fit in place against the flats of the Nut to
prevent it from moving. This adjustment should be done by 2 people. If the
Adjustment Nut is too tight, the Handle will not lock.
After the Adjustment Nut is properly adjusted, pull back on the Trigger and push
down on the Handle until the Trigger locks in the slot. Pull up on Handle firmly to
make sure the Trigger is locked in place and the Handle cannot move. Replace the
Safety Pin and “R” Pin. (See Figure F.)
Make sure to attach each side of the Safety Chain (A19) equally to the towing
vehicle’s rear bumper or frame. (See Figure F.)
Connect the Tail Light Wiring Assembly (A11) to the towing vehicle’s 12 Volt DC
system. NOTE: Make sure to consult the operator’s manual of the towing ve-
hicle for proper connection instructions.
When towing the Trailer over long distances stop and check the tightness of all
connections and Tail Lights (A11) at least every 100 miles. Carry extra bulbs and
fuses if towing the Trailer at night over long distances.
Carry emergency flares and fire extinguisher, if required for operation in your state.
