We appreciate your business and hope you are proud of your new FLOE CargoMax XRT 

trailer – a pride that will continue throughout the years. If you shopped trailers before 
deciding on the Floe, you probably concluded that our trailer has numerous features not 
commonly found on others.
  At FLOE International, we take great pride in providing the highest quality trailer, with the latest state-of-the-art 
features, at an affordable price. Each year we implement improvements to our product lines to ensure that we are on the 
“leading edge” and providing the best available trailer.
 

We are confident your FLOE trailer will provide you with years of trouble-free trailering, and that if you decide to buy 

another trailer, it is because you want another FLOE model.
 

Please take the time to read and understand this owner’s manual before towing your new trailer. The information 

offered here will have a direct impact on your safety, the safety of others, and the dependability of your trailer.
 

Thank you for choosing FLOE.

Sincerely,

Wayne Floe, CEO – Floe International
