).

Instructions for Use
Do not use Flip with trailer parked on a slope
steeper than a 3% grade, or 1.72 degrees.
3%

°
Also make sure that the spot where the jack foot will rest is as level as
possible, and free from debris like sticks or stones that might keep the jack foot
from being completely supported.
Chock the wheels on both sides of the trailer securely. Disconnect trailer plug,
safety chains, and breakaway cable from the tow vehicle. Uncouple the coupler,
and extend the jack to raise the coupler off the ball.
If using a weight distributing hitch, you may use the jack foot to raise both the
tow vehicle and trailer to make it easier to disconnect the hitch. Once the spring
arms are disengaged, lower the trailer and tow vehicle back to a point where the
tow vehicle is supporting all of the trailer’s tongue weight. Uncouple the coupler,
and extend the jack to raise the coupler off the ball.
STEP 5
When uncoupling your trailer:
Make sure that the trailer is parked on relatively level ground.
Most
improved campsites, such as those found in private and public campgrounds are
fine. Pay special attention to the site when dry camping to make sure the slope is
not more than a 3% grade ( 1.72° ) either side-to-side or front-to-back.
