Care and Maintenance 

As an extra precaution, we recommend you double check the hitch bolt and all 

tilt

AWAY

fasteners once a month (and every time you reinstall it, whichever is more often) to 
ensure everything is securely fastened and attached correctly.  Address anything that has 
loosened or shifted over time with vehicle/road vibration. 

When not in use but on the vehicle, lower arms and remove straps to avoid decay from
ultraviolet rays.

For proper operating performance, we recommend you clean your 

tilt

AWAY from time to

time with soap and water, to ensure salt, sand, grit and other debris do not interfere with

tilt

AWAY 's smooth operation. In winterized-salty conditions, wash the 

tilt

AWAY

thoroughly at least every week.

Please remember to remove your 

tilt

AWAY if you drive through an automated car wash.

Routine lubrication of 

tilt

AWAY is required around the T-handle shaft to

ensure the knob lifts easily and the platform rotates with ease.  Use 3-

In-One

®

 

Oil generously and often.
