quick-lock pin. Attach safety cables
(see below). Now connect the lighting cable between the towing
vehicle and the towed vehicle lighting system or auxiliary light bar.
The coiled section of the cable will be stored on the support rod.
Towing vehicle must be larger and at least 500 lbs. heavier
than the towed vehicle and tow bar combined.
Step 1. Out of the box, the etrailer SD tow bar is setup with the
safety cables installed and ready for you to tow. Install the electrical
cable (optional) by placing the coil over the wire support rod. Secure
the cable with the cable locking hair pin.
HOOKING UP THE VEHICLE TO BE TOWED
Step 4. Position the vehicle to be towed approximately 24
”
behind
the towing vehicle. Perform a tow bar check, look for any loose
fasteners, condition of safety cables, excessive movement in
connecting leg shaft when the shaft is extended and locked. If any
excessive movement or loose fasteners, the tow bar will need to be
serviced before towing. The vehicles do not have to be in straight
alignment to complete the hook-up. Engage towed vehicle and
towing vehicle parking brake.
Quick-Lock pin must be closed properly.
Fold ring of Quick-Lock pin to the side of
the pin that allows ring to snap against
pin. If you have folded its ring the wrong
way it will not snap against pin.
Step 2. Insert the etrailer SD into a Class III or greater receiver hitch.
Step 3. Insert receiver pin through receiver until pin passes
through. Secure pin with the receiver hair pin. Criss-cross safety
cables underneath pivot assembly and attach to chain anchors
on towing vehicle. Do not use coiled safety cables with this tow
bar. Always use straight safety cables.
Step 6. Hook safety cables to chain anchor of base plate.
Note:
Make sure safety clip is in working order.
Step 7. Leave the electrical cable storage pin (circled above)
out for the locking procedure in step 6. When step 6 is complete,
position cable on storage rod leaving enough slack and insert pin.
