Important Safety Precautions
You’ll find many safety recommendations on this page and throughout this
manual. The recommendations on the next two pages are the ones we
consider to be the most important. They are covered in depth in later sections
of this manual.
Do Not Allow Passengers to Ride in the Trailer During Travel
The transport of people puts their lives at risk and may be illegal. The trailer
does not have seat belts, therefore, it is not designed to carry passengers.
Reducing Fishtailing or Sway (See page B-12)
Sway or fishtailing is the sideways action of a trailer caused by external forces.
Excessive sway of your travel trailer can lead to the rollover of the trailer and
tow vehicle resulting in serious injury or death. Be sure to follow the instructions
in this manual.
