Attach part “A” on the passenger side, and part “B”
on the driver side. Use the supplied ½" x 1½" bolts, the
two safety plates (parts “C”), flat washers, lock washers

Your ROADMASTER tow bar is equipped with an ex-
clusive “quick-disconnect” (or, “QD”) system. Before con-
necting the tow bar to the vehicle, first install the com-
ponents of the QD system to the mounting bracket.
Note: the quick-disconnect system is not used with
ROADMASTER ‘MS’ or ‘MX’ series mounting brackets. If
the towed vehicle has MS or MX brackets, proceed to the
next section — “Connecting the tow bar.” The quick-dis-
connect system should be reserved, however, for subse-
quent vehicles which may not have these brackets.
