VERSA TRAILER

 

 

Installing the Rear Bed Support and Attaching to a Tow Vehicle 

Tools Needed: 

x

18mm and 30mm Socket 

x

18mm Wrench 

x

Adjustable Wrench 

x

1/2" Drive Torque Wrench 

x

5" Long 1/2" Drive Socket Extension 

x

21mm 1/2" Drive Socket 

1.  Slide the Rear Bed Support (

Figure 38

) onto the Main Frame with the 

Bosses facing Left. 

2.  Line up the through Hole in the Rear Support and Main Frame and install 

the M20 x 110mm Bolt (

Figure 39

) through the Rear Support and Main 

Frame and secure with the M20 Lock Nut and tighten with a 30mm Socket 

and Adjustable Wrench. 

3.  Install two M12 x 90mm Bolts w/Jam Nuts (

Figure 40

) in the Rear Support 

and tighten the Bolts then the Jam Nuts using an 18mm Socket and 18mm 
Wrench. 

 

x

Make sure your 2" Hitch Ball is correctly tightened to the Receiver and that 
the Receiver is properly connected to your Towing Vehicle.  A loose Ball or 
Receiver can result in the Trailer detaching from the Tow Vehicle during use. 

x

A worn, corroded, cracked, or otherwise damaged Hitch Ball can fail while 
towing.  Always inspect your Ball before attaching to your Trailer. 

x

Always use a 2" Hitch Ball with your Trailer. 

x

Never operate your Trailer if the Coupler is not locked and the Safety Snap 
Pin is not installed. 

x

When the Trailer’s Coupler is connected to the Ball and is in the locked 
position, rock the Tow Bar up and down as well as side-to-side to make sure 

the Ball is tight to the Coupler.  A properly fastened and locked Coupler will 
raise the rear of the Tow Vehicle when it is pulled upwards without coming 
off of the Ball. 

4.  Attach the Trailer to your Tow Vehicle using a 2" Ball, making sure to 

properly latch the Coupler, and locking it with the supplied Safety Snap Pin 
(

Figure 41 

on page 19).  After the Trailer is attached, remove the Wheel 

Chocks. 

5.  Loosen the Locking Handles for the Stabilizer Legs and raise them to the 

highest position for towing.  Re-tighten the Locking Handles and rotate the 
Trailer Jack to the Tow position (

Figure 42 

on page 19). 

6.  Torque the Lug Nuts on each Wheel to 85-90 ft-lbs using a Torque Wrench, 

a 5" Extension and 21mm Socket. 

 

Make sure all Nuts and Bolts are tight.  Inspect all Hardware on your Trailer 

before proceeding any further.
