Section 3: Pre-Travel Information
Wire Harness/Connector Plug
A 7-way wire harness/connector plug is wired into your trailer to connect electrical power
from the tow vehicle for travel. This supplies power to the RV brakes, taillights, clearance
lights, turn signals, brake lights, etc. Wiring to operate your brakes must be the same size in
both the tow vehicle and RV (the RV brake wiring is 12-gauge wire).
When attaching wires to your tow vehicle, tape all the connections for moisture protection.

The connector plug may build up corrosion with extended use. It should be cleaned peri-
odically to insure good electrical contact. Make sure the connector plug is kept clean and
protected from road elements as you travel.
Travel Trailer Safety Chains
Your RV is equipped with chains to meet SAE standard requirements for maximum gross
trailer weight. Always have the safety chains attached when towing. Install them as shown
below so they do not restrict sharp turns, but tight enough so they do not drag on the ground.
Crisscross the left safety chain under the coupler and attach to the right mounting slot in the
trailer hitch; repeat with the right safety chain. Slack for each length should be the same but
not more than necessary to permit the vehicle to turn at its minimum radius, but tight enough
not to drag on the ground.
NOTE:
A 12V circuit tester is recommended to verify the trailer connec
-
tions.
Weighing Your Tow Vehicle and RV
When the RV is fully loaded it should be weighed. The actual weight of the vehicle, all op-
tions, liquids, the hitch weight, and your personal cargo is important for you to know so you
do not exceed the GVWR. Two important factors when loading your RV are total weight
and balance.
It is imperative that you verify compliance within all applicable weight ratings. Overloading
your RV will void the
Towable Limited Warranty
and the warranties of many component
part manufacturers.
Periodically weigh your RV at a public scale to determine proper load distribution. To obtain
the side-to-side weights, there needs to be enough space on either side of the scale to ac-
commodate the RV being partially off the scale.
Keep in mind that individual scales will
operate differently.
