circular cap with the multiple holes is the screwing cap which is ensures a tight lock between trailer/van and vehicle
Use the following instructions to safely attach your trailer to your vehicle or van

2.
Slowly reverse your vehicle to within a few feet of the coupling. You may need a helper to stand with their
hands showing you where the hitch is or use your reversing camera to position the tow pin and hitch as
close as possible. A great idea is to have the McHitch tilted up so that when you reverse, the tow pin
attached to your tow bar can position in a way that you can drop the McHitch straight on top of the tow pin

Once in position, use the jockey wheel to adjust the heigh of the hitch to ensure you can drop the hitch onto
