12 Owner’s Manual for Indirect Fired Heater
General Information
Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is different than driv-
ing the same vehicle without a trailer in tow. Consider the
following:
• It takes longer to get up to speed.
• More room is needed to turn and pass.
• More distance is needed to stop.
• The driver is responsible for keeping the vehicle
and trailer under control.
When towing, make regular stops to verify the following:
• Coupler is secured to the hitch and locked.
• Electrical connections are made.
• Appropriate slack in the safety chains and the
breakaway switch pull-pin cable.
• Tires are inflated to proper air pressure with no
damage or unusual wear to tread or sidewalls.
• Trailer doors are secured and latched.
Other towing guidelines:
• Use the tow vehicles mirrors to verify there is
enough room for lane changes or entering/exiting
traffic.
• Allow plenty of stopping distance for the trailer and
tow vehicle.
• Do not drive faster than the conditions allow.
• A rule of thumb for passing distance is the distance
with a trailer is four times the passing distance
without a trailer.
• Use lower gears for climbing and descending
grades.
• Do not ride the brakes while descending grades;
this can cause overheating and potential brake fail-
ure.
• Do not apply the tow vehicle brakes to correct ex-
treme trailer swaying. Continued pulling of the
trailer, and even slight acceleration, or carefully
applying the trailer brakes (using the electronic
brake controller) will provide a stabilizing force.
Wheel Chock Guidelines
• Select wheel chock according to equipment type
and size.
• Always use in pairs and on firm surfaces.
• Chock in direction of grade.
• Chock both sides of wheel if direction of grade is
unknown.
• Use wheel chock only after parking brake is
applied and tested.
• Center chocks squarely against tread of each
wheel.
• Do not drive over wheel chocks.
