Important Safety Precautions
You’ll find many safety recommendations on this page and throughout this manual.
The recommendations on the next two pages are the ones we consider to be the most
important. Most are covered in depth in later sections of this manual.
Do Not Allow Passengers to Ride in the Trailer During Travel
The transport of people puts their lives at risk and may be illegal. The trailer does not
have seat belts, therefore, it is not designed to carry passengers.
Reducing Fishtailing or Sway (See section B, B-1-B12)
Sway or fishtailing is the sideways action of a trailer caused by external forces.
Excessive sway of your travel trailer can lead to the rollover of the trailer and tow
vehicle resulting in serious injury or death. Be sure to follow the instructions in this
manual.
Mold (See page C-8)
There are mold and mold spores throughout the indoor and outdoor environment. There
is no practical way to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment; the
way to control indoor mold growth is to control moisture.
Towing and Weight Distribution (See page B-1)
Weight distribution is an important factor when loading your travel trailer. A recreational
vehicle with the cargo distributed properly will result in efficient, trouble-free towing.
Be sure to follow the instructions in this manual.
Formaldehyde (See Chemical Sensitivity on the next page)
Formaldehyde is an important chemical used widely by industry to manufacture building
materials and numerous household products. It is also a by-product of combustion
and certain other natural processes. Thus, it may be present inside the trailer with
some individuals being sensitive to it. Ventilation of the unit normally reduces the
exposure to a comfortable level.
Generator Safety
Do not operate the generator in an enclosed building or in a partly enclosed area such
as a garage. Nor should the generator be operated while sleeping. Be sure to follow
all instructions and warnings in this manual.
Lug Nut Torquing (See page D-14)
Being sure wheel mounting nuts (lug nuts) on trailer wheels are tight and properly
torqued is an important responsibility that trailer owners and users need to be familiar
