REMOVING THE LIGHTS FOR TRANSPORTATION
1. On units equipped with quick disconnect fittings for the lights, disconnect the
power cords from the junction box at the top of the mast. Replace the dust caps
on the junction box. On hard wired units, remove the junction box cover, located
on the top of the mast, and disconnect
ONLY the mast light wires from the
connectors. To release the mast light wires from the connectors, flip the locking
levers down and pull out the appropriate wires.
2. Remove the lights from the mast by removing the wing nut that holds the light
fixture bracket to the cross tube. Attach the lights to the storage brackets (if
equipped) located on the mast tube on either side of the central lift point.

TOWING THE UNIT
Once the engine is shut down and the mast and lights are properly stowed, follow these steps to prepare the unit
for towing.
1. Raise the rear jack completely and release the locking pin to rotate it up into the travel position. Make sure
the locking pin snaps into place.
2. Raise the outrigger jacks completely and release the locking pins to rotate them up into the travel position.
Make sure the locking pins snap into place. Release the outrigger locking pins and slide the outriggers into
the trailer frame until the locking pins snap into place.
3. Use the tongue jack to raise or lower the trailer onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch coupling
and attach the safety chains or cables to the vehicle. Remove the tongue jack locking pin and rotate the
jack into the travel position. Replace the locking pin.
Note: A film of grease on the coupler will extend coupler life and eliminate squeaking. Wipe the coupler clean and
apply fresh grease each time the unit is towed.
4. To ensure proper operation of the jacks, lube the grease fittings located on the leveling jacks. Refer to “Jack
Maintenance” on page 31. For maintenance interval information, refer to Basic Maintenance Schedules
beginning on page 28.
5. Connect any trailer wiring to the tow vehicle. Check for proper operation of the directional and brake lights.
6. Make sure the mast cradle locking pin is in place.
7. Make sure the doors are properly latched.
8. If the unit is going to be driven over rough ground, remove the bulbs from the light fixtures.
9. Check for proper inflation of the trailer tires. For maximum tire pressures, refer to Specifications beginning
on page 7 .
