CAUTION
BOATS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY TRAILERS THAT DO NOT
PROPERLY SUPPORT THE HULL. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE
TRAILER BUNKS AND ROLLERS ARE ADJUSTED SO THEY
ARE NOT PUTTING EXCESSIVE PRESSURE ON THE LIFTING
STRAKES AND ARE PROVIDING ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR THE
HULL. HULL DAMAGE RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRAILER
SUPPORT IS NOT COVERED BY THE SCOUT WARRANTY.
Before Going Out On The Highway:
• SIDE CURTAINS, CLEAR CONNECTOR, BACK
DROP
and
AFT CURTAIN
must be removed
when trailering. Canvas enclosures are not
designed to withstand the extreme wind
pressure encountered while trailering and will
be damaged. Always remove and properly
store the enclosure before trailering your boat.
• Make sure the tow BALL and TRAILER COUPLER
are the same size and bolts and nuts are tightly
secured.
• The COUPLER MUST BE COMPLETELY OVER
THE BALL and the LATCHING MECHANISM
LOCKED DOWN.
• Make sure the TRAILER IS LOADED EVENLY
from front to rear as well as side to side and
has the correct weight on the hitch. Too much
weight on the hitch will cause the rear of the
tow vehicle to drag and may make steering
more difficult. Too little weight on the hitch
will cause the rig to fishtail and will make
controlling the tow vehicle difficult. Contact
your trailer manufacturer or dealer for the
correct weight on the hitch for your trailer.
• The SAFETY CHAINS must be attached
crisscrossing under the coupler to the frame
of the tow vehicle. If the ball was to break,
the trailer would follow in a straight line and
prevent the coupler from dragging on the road.
Make sure the trailer emergency brake cable
or chain is also installed to the tow vehicle
frame.
• Make sure the LIGHTS on the trailer function
properly.
• CHECK THE BRAKES. On a level parking area
roll forward and apply the brakes several times
at increasing speeds to determine if the brakes
on the tow vehicle and trailer are working
properly.
• Make sure the tow vehicle has SIDE VIEW
MIRRORS that are large enough to provide an
unobstructed rear view on both sides of the
vehicle.
• CHECK THE TIRES and WHEEL BEARINGS.
NOTICE:
Make sure your towing vehicle and trailer are
in compliance with all state and local laws.
Contact your state motor vehicle bureau for
laws governing the towing of trailers.
