AXLE MAINTENANCE:
Buy a small grease gun for the hubs and use a high quality
multi- purpose non-fibrous grease, similar to the grease used
in automobile wheel bearings. Put in enough grease to move
the spring loaded piston about 1/8" outward from its seated
position. Check the lubricant level in the hub by pressing
the edge of the spring loaded piston. If you can move or
rock the piston, the hub has sufficient grease. If it cannot be
moved, add grease with the grease gun. Do not overfill.
TRAILER LIGHT CARE:
The lights are equipped with quick disconnect electrical
plugs. All lights should be removed before backing the trailer
into the water. Put a dab of petroleum jelly (Vaseline) on
each of the quick disconnects. Be sure to disconnect the
trailer harness from the trunk harness of the towing vehicle
before backing the trailer into the water.
TRAILER PAINT MAINTENANCE:
To keep rust to a minimum, rinse the trailer with fresh water
after every exposure to salt water.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE:
Frequently check the trailer to assure that all bolts and nuts
are tight, that all welds look solid, and that there are no cracks
or bends in the trailer structure. Inspect tires for cuts, bad
bruises and worn tread. Replace tires as necessary.
