Rear Bumper
The rear bumper of your unit is not designed to carry cargo. Items that extend beyond the
bumper OR weigh over 100# (45kg) will place undo strain on the bumper. The 100#
capacity of your bumper includes the weight of the spare tire that may have been attached
at the factory. Some items may fall within the given weight range, however, may still cause
damage. Over time, weight added to your bumper will cause damage from the motion
created while traveling.
In addition, extra weight behind the axle may reduce the hitch weight. This could lead to
adverse handling conditions of the towed vehicle from wind gusts and/or passing traffic.
Caution: Do not add items to the trailer’s rear bumper. Add-on items will eventually
damage your bumper. Damage from add-on equipment or improper loading voids
the Limited Warranty of your trailer.
HOLDING TANK(S) AND TRAILER WEIGHT
I
WARNING: We recommend that you DO NOT travel with waste in
your holding tanks. With one or more full or nearly full holding tank(s),
the towing characteristics of your trailer could change and may result
in property damage or personal injury.
There are many kinds of hitches available for various uses and assuring that you have the
correct hitch installed is critical to a safe towing experience. Your trailer requires a frame
mounted hitch. This type of hitch is assigned a class number, by the manufacturer. The
class is based on the capacity the hitch has for towing and a weight classification. The
weight classification is determined from the hitch’s weight carrying capacity, which is also
known as the tongue weight. Before selecting a hitch, you must know the total towed
weight (trailer weight and all contents of the trailer) and the tongue weight of the trailer.
The rating of the hitch package should be equal to or greater than the trailer’s GVWR and
the hitch weight.
If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty the tank(s), use caution when
towing. Maintain lower speeds for better control of the trailer until you reach the nearest
dumping station.
