fully on the tow ball. Be sure that the tongue jack wheel is slightly clear of
the ground. Close the ball socket latch by pushing downward into the
recess. The release handle should close smoothly if the ball has been
seated correctly into the socket. If the release handle does not close,
DO
NOT TOW THE TRAILER. To make sure that the connection is secure,
lower the tongue jack until the ram has lifted the trailer hitch and trailer
tongue connection 3 or 4 inches. If the ball does not disengage, you may
be reasonably sure that the attachment is secure.
Next, fully retract the jack into the full up position and connect the
safety chains to the connection points on your tow vehicle hitch.
If your trailer is equipped with brakes, hook up the emergency
breakaway cable and inspect to see that the breakaway cable button stop
is not showing. Please refer to your brake owners manual. If you do not
have a brake system manual, please write or call Tie Down Engineering,
5901 Wheaton Drive, Atlanta, GA 30336, 404-344-0000.
On swing hitch trailers, make sure the hitch is in the forward position
and the locking pin is properly installed. Connect your trailer wire harness
and test your vehicle lights to make sure that the trailer’s brake and turn
signals duplicate your vehicles. Remove any trailer wheel chock and
carefully pull away.
To unhitch your trailer from the tow vehicle, place the trailer on a level
and paved surface and chock both trailer wheels to prevent any
movement forward or backward. Unhook the safety chains, wiring
harness and, if so equipped, the brake break-away cable. Then, using the
trailer tongue jack, raise the hitch up and clear the ball. In this position the
trailer tongue should be left somewhat bow high so that any water will run
out through the drain hole in the stern of the boat.
