Exceptions

 

If customer requirements include carrying larger poles within the confines of the extendible tongue, we have three 
options. One option is increasing the overall length of the trailer and extension. A second option is relocating the 
undercarriage rearward a maximum of 2’. The third option simply lowers the target tongue weight. If 10% or 15% tongue 
weight transfer is desired, substitute 1.10 or 1.15 respectively for 1.20 in the equation. Tongue weight is an important 
consideration. Too much can raise rear truck axle weights to unacceptable levels and de-load the front axle, causing 
steering and control problems. Too little tongue weight will result in reduced trailer control while towing. 
 

Adjusting the tongue length 

 
Set the chocks at the front of the tires 
With both jacks in the down position, raise and store the front jack in the stored position while leaving the mid-frame 
jack down. The trailer should be near level. Remove the stainless-steel insertion pin. The trailer is now ready to be 
expanded to one of the marked extension points, or to the final stop position (fully extended), Keep the trailer at near 
level. 
Utilizing mechanized equipment such as a truck or forklift attached to the pintle eye, slowly pull out the tongue - 
stopping at the desired marked position, or the final stop. Re-insert the stainless-steel pin at the indexed position and 
swivel to the locked position. Lower the front jack. To retract the tongue, reverse the location of the chocks to the rear of 
the tires, remove the pin, push the tongue to the desired position and re-insert the pin.
