GENERAL TRAILERING INFORMATION
Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is vastly different from driving the same
vehicle without a trailer in tow. It takes longer to get up to speed. You need
more room to turn and pass, and more distance to stop when towing a trailer.
You are responsible for keeping your vehicle and trailer in control, and for all
damage that is caused if you lose control of your vehicle and trailer.
It is critical that the trailer be securely coupled to the hitch and that the safety
chains are correctly attached. Uncoupling while towing may result in death or
serious injury.
If the trailer comes loose from the hitch for any reason, we have provided safety
chains so that control of the trailer can be maintained.
Your trailer is equipped with a breakaway brake system that will apply the brakes
on your trailer if your trailer comes loose from the hitch. The safety chains and
breakaway brake system must be in good condition and properly rigged to be
effective. The breakaway brake system must not be used as a substitute for a
parking brake or wheel chocking.
Be sure your hitch and tow vehicle are rated for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) of your trailer.
Maximum towing speed 45 mph.
Be sure tires are inflated to pressure indicated on tire size and air pressure ID tag
before towing. Improper inflation can result in a blowout and loss of control,
which can lead to death or serious injury.
Be sure lug nuts are tight before each tow.
Be sure that the electric brakes and all of the lights on your trailer are functioning
properly before each tow.
Altering your trailer can damage essential safety items. DO NOT alter your
trailer.
