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 other units, remove the junction box cover on the top of the mast
and disconnect
ONLY
the mast light wires from the terminal blocks. To release the
wires from the terminal blocks, flip the locking levers down and pull out the appropri-
ate wires (A).
2.
Remove the lights 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 lifting eye.
TOWING THE TRAILER
Once the engine is shut down and the mast and lights are properly stowed, the trailer can be made ready for
transport.
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 jack locking pin to swing the jacks 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. Release the jack locking pin and rotate the jack into the
travel position. Make sure the locking pin snaps into place.
4.
To ensure proper operation of the jacks, lube the grease fittings located on the leveling jacks.
5.
Connect any trailer wiring to the tow vehicle. Check for proper operation of the stop and signal lights.
6.
Make sure the mast cradle locking pin is in place.
7.
Make sure the doors are properly latched.
8.
If the trailer is going to be driven over rough ground, remove the bulbs from the light fixtures.
9.
Check for proper inflation of the trailer tires. The maximum tire inflation is 50
psi.
10. Attach a red flag to the end of the mast before towing.
11. Check the wheel lugs. Tighten or replace any that are loose or missing. If a tire has
been removed for axle service or replaced, tighten the lugs in the order shown to the
following specifications:
A. Start all lug nuts by hand.
B. First pass tighten to 20-25 Ft-Lbs (27-33 Nm).
C. Second pass tighten to 50-60 Ft-Lbs (67-81 Nm).
D. Third pass tighten to 90-120 Ft-Lbs (122-162 Nm).
After the first road use, re-torque the lug nuts in sequence.
12. Maximum recommended speed for highway towing is 45 mph. Recommended off-road towing speed is not to
exceed 10 mph or less depending on terrain.
TRAILER WHEEL BEARINGS
The generator is equipped with a grease zerk fitting to allow lubrication of the wheel bearings without the need to
disassemble the axle hub. To lubricate the axle bearings, remove the small rubber plug on the grease cap, attach a
standard grease gun fitting to the grease zerk fitting and pump grease into the fitting until new grease is visible
around the nozzle of the grease gun. Use only a high quality grease made specifically for lubrication of wheel
bearings. Wipe any excess grease from the hub with a clean cloth and replace the rubber plug when finished. The
minimum recommended lubrication is every 12 months or 12,000 miles; more frequent lubrication may be required
under extremely dusty or damp operating conditions.
