Owner’s Manual Page Trailer Information - Section S
To use your lockout, check that no force is being
applied to the actuator. This is achieved by positioning
the towing vehicle and the trailer on a flat service, or
with the trailer downhill from the tow vehicle. Set the
vehicle’s parking brake.
Insert a 5” x 7/16” bolt or screwdriver into the reverse
lockout position hole (upper hole on side of actuator).
This will then block movement of the actuator. See
Figure S15. Reverse lockout option must only be
used when moving in reverse and when braking is
not required. Immediately remove bolt or screwdriver
prior to towing after backing up is completed.
NOTICE
The reverse lockout position hole and actuator
hole may not be in alignment. You may have to
block the trailer’s wheels and pull the trailer
forward enough so the holes are aligned and a
bolt or screwdriver may be inserted completely
into the reverse lockout position holes.
Figure S15: Reverse Manual Brake Lockout
Never allow the bolt or screwdriver to remain in
the reverse lockout position hole. After reverse
maneuvering, always remove bolt or screw-
driver from the reverse lockout position hole.
Failure to remove bolt or screwdriver from
reverse lockout position hole will prevent
forward movement braking which can result in
serious property damage, injury or death.
NOTICE
Trailer components may be different between
models and may change during the model
year. Be sure to read all manufacturer’s
literature supplied with your Four Winns

S - 4 TRAILERING
A. Checklist
Before trailering, the trailer should be inspected
for the following:
1. Check tires for proper inflation. Under-inflated tires
heat up rapidly and may blowout or cause uncon-
trolled swaying. Also, make sure lug nuts are tight.
2. Be sure the coupler is secured to the trailer hitch
and safety chains are attached.
3. Be sure trailer taillights and turning signals are
operational.
4. Check the brakes for proper operation prior to
departure.
5. Check lug nuts for proper tightness.
6. Check tie-downs and make sure boat is secured
to the trailer.
7. Check the springs and under carriage for loose
parts.
8. Before towing, close and secure all hatches,
doors, and windows. Securely store all equipment
and canvas. Installed tops, side curtains, and aft
curtains can be damaged while towing.
9. Carry a spare tire for both the trailer and towing
vehicle. On extended trips, carry spare wheel
bearings, seals, and races. Be sure and carry the
proper tools to complete the repairs.
To avoid bearing failure and possible wheel
loss, keep wheel bearings properly lubricated.
Inspect the wheel bearings periodically and
check for damage.
