Roll Tarp:
Always keep the compartments covered when
not being filled. Store the crank handle in the
bracket at the front of the tender.
Tender Trailer:
The bumper hitch trailer is equipped with a jack
at the nose. It is important to lower the jack
when using the tender to give stability.
All trailers are equipped with a Break-Away
brake system. It is located near the nose.
Break-Away System:
A Break-Away System is installed on all trailers.
The control box contains LEDs to show the
condition of enclosed battery. There is a Test
button to check the battery level.
IMPORTANT:
Test the Break-Away Switch periodically.
Removing the pin, then pull the trailer
to feel if the brakes have engaged.
The cable attached to the Break-Away Switch
pin, must go around the ball before coupling the
trailer to the tow vehicle.
During transportation, if the trailer should detach
from the transport vehicle, the pin will be pulled
out engaging the trailer’s brakes.
TRANSPORT HAZARD
Always secure the safety chains
to the tow vehicle, in addition
to the Break-Away Switch.
