10. Obey traffic laws, allow extra time for stopping and decrease speed when visibility is limited
or roads are wet.
11. Have a safe and wonderful trip!
If towing a trailer is new for you, please take time to practice towing, parking and backing skills
prior to traveling. Your dealer can answer many of your questions, but nothing replaces practice. We
recommend that you find a large and quiet parking lot to practice your skills.
Hitches – Fifth-Wheel Travel Trailer
Different types of hitches are available for pickup trucks. The best type of hitch is one that is bolted
directly to the floor of the truck box through the frame.
Another type of hitch is the mini-hitch. The mini-hitch has two brackets attached to the truck box,
and is placed over the fender. This type of hitch generally does not provide frame support for
strength.
Hitch Height - Fifth-Wheel Sport Utility Trailer
There is no recommended hitch height for fifth-wheel travel trailers. The pin box is adjustable at two
inch intervals for variance in trucks and their suspension systems. Always travel with the truck and
travel trailer as level as possible.
Hitching Procedure – Fifth-Wheel Travel Trailer
1. Block the wheels.
2. Make sure the hitch lever is in its open or “cocked” position unless it has been designed to
open automatically.
3. Back the truck so the hitch encircles the fifth-wheel travel trailer pin.
4. A gentle contact of the hitch saddle against the pin will cause the mechanism to close.
5. Secure the hitch lever as specified by the manufacturer.
6. Be sure to raise the fifth-wheel landing gear all the way up.
7. Attach the breakaway switch cable to the tow vehicle.
8. Plug the 12-volt DC electrical connector from the tow vehicle to the fifth-wheel travel trailer.
9. Raise the tailgate of the tow vehicle, if applicable.
10. When unhitching, make sure you do not forget to lower the tailgate.
11. The following items must be inspected prior to your journey:
• All lights must be in working order.
• The stabilizer jacks must be in the retracted position.
• The entrance steps must be in the retracted position.
• The refrigerator door should be closed and locked.
• All loose items must be secured.
• The brakes must be tested for operation prior to entering the roadway.
• The tire pressure must be checked and maintained per the tire pressure stamped on the tire
sidewall.
