Things To Know
Loaded ball height should never be greater than
uncoupled height at ball on towing vehicle. Front
wheel overload and loss of rear wheel traction can
occur and can lead to unstable handling, reduced
braking ability, and a tendency to jackknife
when
turning and braking at the same time.
DO NOT
attempt to tow any type of trailer behind
another trailer. Towing multiple trailers may cause
severe instability, loss of control and/or structural
failures.
Handling and control of your towing vehicle and
trailer is greatly improved when the cargo is
properly loaded and distributed.
