TOWING & HANDLING
and away from the traffic approaching
from behind.
The hazard-warning flasher provides
additional safety if the RV is stopped on the
side of the roadway and presents a possible
hazard to other motorists. When the flasher is
on, it serves as a warning to others to
approach and overtake your vehicle with
caution.
For personal safety, always stand off the
road and out of the way of traffic. Curves
and/or hills may affect the safe placement
of warning indicators.

Torque is the amount of rotating force applied
to a fastener, such as a lug nut. Proper torque
of lug nuts can only be achieved by using a
properly calibrated torque wrench and socket.
Do not use a 4-way socket or any other type
of wrench that does not measure the actual
pressure applied to the lug nut.
After your first trip, use a properly calibrated
torque wrench to check the wheel lug torque
periodically for safety. Check the wheel lugs
after winter storage, after a wheel removal,
before starting a trip or following extensive
braking. Use the correct star pattern
sequence, listed in the Wheel Lug Torque
Chart, to attach the RV wheels.
1. Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross
threading.
2. Tighten the nuts in the sequence shown.
3. Tighten the lug nuts equally in stages as
indicated for your trailer's wheels.
Check and re-torque after the first 10, 25
and 50 miles (16, 40 and 80 kilometers).
Thereafter, check and maintain the torque
according to the listed torque values in the
Wheel Lug Torque Chart.

Read and understand the following before
taking your first trip in your RV!
Proper care and maintenance of your tires is
essential to ensure your safety, as well as the
safety of others, as you travel. Taking time to
become educated on the special qualities of
RV tires and care they require will enhance
your travel enjoyment. Routine maintenance
on your RV is important, but it cannot be
overstated just how critical proper tire
maintenance is to the safety, operation and
durability of your RV. You must follow the
Never allow anyone to go under the RV
while it is being lifted and/or being
towed.
Failure to follow proper inflation guidelines
may result in tire failure, which, under
certain circumstances can cause loss of
vehicle control or accidents that may result
in property damage, bodily injury and/or
death.
Wheel lug nuts must be applied and
maintained at the proper torque levels to
prevent loose wheels, broken studs and
possible separation of the tire and wheel
while driving, possibly resulting in property
damage or personal injury. The lug nuts
on the wheels of your RV must be
maintained according to listed torque
values in the Wheel Lug Torque Chart
(refer to the Specifications & Glossary
section of this manual).
Over-torqued and/or under-torqued wheels
may result in component failure.
