To reduce the possibility of an accident
while transporting the generator on public roads, always
make sure the trailer (Figure 1) that supports the generator
and the towing vehicle are in good operating condition and
both units are mechanically sound.
The following list of suggestions should be used when towing
your generator:
CAUTION :
Towing Safety Precautions
Check with your county or state safety
towing regulations department before towing
your generator.
■
Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle
are rated equal to, or greater than the trailer "gross vehicle
weight rating" (GVWR).
■
ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling for wear. NEVER
tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains
etc.
■
Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and
trailer. Also check the tire tread wear on both vehicles.
■
ALWAYS make sure the trailer is equipped with a "Safety
Chain".
DCA-100SSJU — TOWING RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
■
ALWAYS attach trailer’s safety chain to bumper of towing
vehicle.
■
ALWAYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional,
backup, brake, and trailer lights are connected and
working properly.
■
The maximum speed for highway towing is 45 MPH
unless posted otherwise. Recommended off-road towing
is not to exceed 10 MPH or less depending on type of
terrain.
■
Place chocked blocks underneath wheel to prevent
rolling, while parked.
■
Place support blocks underneath the trailer’s bumper to
prevent tipping, while parked.
■
Use the trailer’s hand winch to adjust the height of the
trailer, then insert locking pin to lock wheel stand in place,
while parked.
■
Avoid sudden stops and starts. This can cause skidding,
or jack-knifing. Smooth, gradual starts and stops will
improve gas milage.
■
Avoid sharp turns to prevent rolling.
■
Remove wheel stand when transporting.
■
DO NOT transport generator with fuel in tank.
