tow vehicle. Educate yourself to protect you, your family and other motorists.

CAUTIONS:
• Using an oversized or undersized hitch can cause damage to the frame of your parktrailer.
• Jayco, Inc. cannot be responsible for the suspension system of the tow vehicle. The final
hitch ball height after the parktrailer is completely hooked up is a factor to be considered.
To avoid overloading your parktrailer axles and minimize possible handling difficulties,
your parktrailer should tow level when hooked to your tow vehicle.
• Do not overload your tow vehicle.
Hitch Height
NOTE: To determine the hitch height for your model, make sure that the
parktrailer is level. Measure from inside the hitch coupler to the
ground. Record this number in the box at the side for future
reference. The measurement below is an average measurement
obtained by measuring several trailers with different options. This
gives you a target range for what your trailer will measure.
