SAFETYOPERATIONMAINTENANCE ASSEMBLY
Folding the Trailer
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM LOSS OF CONTROL:
Position Trailer on flat, level, hard surface and chock both Tires (19) before folding/unfolding.
1. Unscrew and remove the two
3/8″x1″CarriageBolts(D)from
the Rear Left Side Rail (1RL) and
Rear Right Side Rail (1RR).
2. With the assistance of one or two helpers,
fold the rear section of the Trailer over the
front section of the Trailer. (See Figure R.)
Figure R: Folding Bed
3. Secure the rear section and front section together
with 4 elastic cords (not included) or rope.
Distribute the elastic cords around all sides
of the rear and front section to hold them
together while the Trailer is folded up.
4. With the assistance of one or two helpers,
remove wheel chocks and carefully tilt the
Trailer onto its Casters (13). When tilting the
Trailer, always apply pressure on the middle
section (where the rear and front section are
secured together). Trying to maneuver the
Trailer vertically by handling the front connecting
Rails (3L, 3R) can make the Trailer unstable.
CAUTION! While tilting and transporting
the Trailer, frequently inspect the Casters;
if the Casters are damaged or deformed,
immediately stop moving the Trailer.
Only transport the folded Trailer short distances.
5. When transporting the folded Trailer, seek the help
of an assistant to prevent the Trailer from tipping.
NOTICE: To avoid damage to Casters (13), avoid rolling
the Trailer on its Casters over long distances.
Roll the Casters only over a flat, level and hard surface.
6. Store the Trailer against a wall, securing
it to the wall by elastic cords or rope.
7. Then, remove the two “L” Latches (9)
and fold the Trailer Tongue down. (See Figure S.)
8. Replace the two “L” Latches (9) after folding
to avoid losing them.
