COMPONENT MAINTENANCE AVOID
Lug Bolts
Lug bolts must be checked at 10,
25 and 50 miles when your travel
trailer is new or a tire is removed
and every 3,000 miles there-
after. In addition, the lug bolts
should be checked periodically
for safety, especially before long
trips, extensive braking, or tire
changes.
Tighten the lug bolts to 90-120
ft. pounds torque using a cross
tighten sequence:
5 stud = 1-3-5-2-4;
6 stud = 1-4-2-5-3-6;
8 stud = 1-5-3-7-2-6-4-8.
DO NOT ignore checking
wheel lug bolts.
Coupler
Use a small quantity of lubri-
cant on the moving mechanism
and all points of movement in
the actuator to insure ease of
operation.
Use conventional grease on the
hitch ball for ease of operation.
Fifth Wheel Hitch

• Lubricate all moving parts of
fifth wheel for proper opera-
tion.
• Grease top surface of wheel
to eliminate wear and facili-
tate easier turning.
• Before coupling to trailer,
inspect all moving parts of

or worn parts.

ery 1,000 miles.
• Ensure that all installation
bolts and nuts are tight.
